LWC Sample Code
This component has a function that sets a label on a specified tab. It uses the tabId property from getFocusedTabInfo().
1import { LightningElement, wire } from 'lwc';
2import {
3 IsConsoleNavigation,
4 getFocusedTabInfo,
5 setTabLabel
6} from 'lightning/platformWorkspaceApi';
7
8const TAB_LABEL = 'Awesome Label';
9
10export default class WorkspaceAPISetTabLabel extends LightningElement {
11 @wire(IsConsoleNavigation) isConsoleNavigation;
12
13 async setTabLabel() {
14 if (!this.isConsoleNavigation) {
15 return;
16 }
17 const { tabId } = await getFocusedTabInfo();
18 setTabLabel(tabId, TAB_LABEL);
19 }
20}This example is the workspaceAPISetTabLabel component from the lwc-recipes repo.
To make your component available for use in a Lightning console app, specify the lightning__AppPage target in the component’s configuration file.
