Apple - Why is Google Chrome not seen in the Screen Recording Options in Security and Privacy settings

Chrome must first ask for the access. At that time it will show up here unchecked, unless you selected "allow" at the time that it asked.

As @ankii mentioned tccutil will allow you to reset your permissions, but you will require the bundle id of the app in question.

To get the bundle id

% osascript -e 'id of app "Google Chrome"'
com.google.Chrome
%

From there you can reset Chrome's permissions using tccutil

Reset permissions

% tccutil reset ALL com.google.Chrome
%

At this point, if Chrome wants to do anything that would require explicit permission from you, it will have to ask again. It has the permissions as though you had installed it for the first time.


Visit https://meet.google.com/

Start a meeting, then cast your screen

Then you'll prompt the permission window.

After that, it'll appear in the Screen Recording section.

I had this issue where Google Chrome was not showing up on the list at all. Turns out that there was a pending request from another app that was in the background, still waiting for me to "Open System Preferences" or "Deny". Once I cleared that out, the system prompt for Google Chrome showed up.
