//here error,clipboardData no property named items
items = clipboardData.items;

var tt = items[0].getAsFile();

debug('file is ok:');

readFileAsDataURL(tt).then(function (sDataURL) {
	debug('read is ok:'+sDataURL);
	$('<img>').appendTo(document.body)
    .attr('src', sDataURL);
  }).fail(function () {

You can get the clipboard data in WebKit, but only during a paste event, for security reasons (random websites being able to copy from your system clipboard at any time would be bad).

@Enmaai said in QWebView<Qt5.5> paste image in clipboard does not work:

JavascriptCanAccessClipboard

You should enable self.settings().setAttribute(QWebEngineSettings.WebAttribute.JavascriptCanAccessClipboard, True) self.settings().setAttribute(QWebEngineSettings.WebAttribute.JavascriptCanPaste, True) to make it work!

Just be aware/for anyone reading this: Your solution is doubtless useful/correct, but it is for QWebEngine. This thread is from a decade ago when that did not exist and is for QWebView, a different Qt web viewer engine which no longer exists/is supported.
