How to pass JSON and call a function in page context?

Question

JavaScript

There is a content script, it contains the following:

var script = document.createElement('script');
script.textContent = 'window.autofill_lead = ' + JSON.stringify(request.lead) + ';';
document.head.appendChild(script);

if you make a call in the context of the page (in the console or via proto javascript:...) it
console.log(window.autofill_lead)
returns undefined!
You need to somehow add an extension script to the page itself (embed a script with a function) and call it with data, while everything should happen in the context of the PAGE. Help me please!!

Answer 1

why can't you do :window.autofill_lead = JSON.parse(request.lead)
