# SendTabFeature

`class SendTabFeature` [(source)](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/blob/master/components/feature/sendtab/src/main/java/mozilla/components/feature/sendtab/SendTabFeature.kt#L42)

A feature that uses the [FxaAccountManager](../../mozilla.components.service.fxa.manager/-fxa-account-manager/index.md) to send and receive tabs with optional push support
for receiving tabs from the [AutoPushFeature](../../mozilla.components.feature.push/-auto-push-feature/index.md) and a [PushService](../../mozilla.components.concept.push/-push-service/index.md).

If the push components are not used, the feature can still function while tabs would only be
received when refreshing the device state.

### Parameters

`accountManager` - Firefox account manager.

`pushFeature` - The [AutoPushFeature](../../mozilla.components.feature.push/-auto-push-feature/index.md) if that is setup for observing push events.

`owner` - Android lifecycle owner for the observers. Defaults to the [ProcessLifecycleOwner](#)
so that we can always observe events throughout the application lifecycle.

`autoPause` - whether or not the observer should automatically be
paused/resumed with the bound lifecycle.

`onTabsReceived` - the callback invoked with new tab(s) are received.
