Hi, did you add an Origin Trial token to your app?

The enable-experimental-web-platform-features makes the API available for your browser when developing locally. Once you deploy it you'll need an Origin Trial token to make the browser load the API. Check developers.chrome.com/origintrials...

It's working fine. Thanks man!
Another thing I had to do in order to use Serial API was adding a SSL certificate to my site.

Great to know! Yep, these new APIs require the web app to use HTTPS to be made available because they can be a risk if not loaded securely.
