If `crossorigin` is set to [`use-credentials`](/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Reference/Attributes/crossorigin#use-credentials) then the credentials mode is [`include`](/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request/credentials#include), and user credentials for both single- and cross-origin requests.

The [`as`](/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Reference/Elements/link#as) attribute is optional for links with `rel="modulepreload"`, and defaults to `"script"`.
It can be set to `"script"` or any script-like destination, such as `"audioworklet"`, `"paintworklet"`, `"serviceworker"`, `"sharedworker"`, or `"worker"`.
It can be set to `"script"`, `"style"`, `"json"`, or any script-like destination, such as `"audioworklet"`, `"paintworklet"`, `"serviceworker"`, `"sharedworker"`, or `"worker"`.
An [`Event`](/en-US/docs/Web/API/Event/Event) named "error" is fired on the element if any other destination is used.

A browser _may_ additionally also choose to automatically fetch any dependencies of the module resource.
