A string representing the request's referrer.

In the following snippet, we create a new request using the Request() constructor (for an image file in the same directory as the script), then save the request referrer in a variable:

js

const myRequest = new Request("flowers.jpg");
const myReferrer = myRequest.referrer; // returns "about:client" by default
