The ConstrainBoolean dictionary is used to specify a constraint for a property whose value is a Boolean value. You can specify an exact value which must be matched, an ideal value that should be matched if at all possible, and a fallback value to attempt to match once all more specific constraints have been applied.
exactidealYou can also specify the value of the property as simply true or false, in which case the user agent will use that value if possible once all efforts have been made to match the exact and ideal values for other properties.

| Media Capture and Streams The definition of 'ConstrainBoolean' in that specification. | Candidate Recommendation | Initial definition |
Technically, ConstrainBoolean is actually based on an intermediary dictionary named ConstrainBooleanParameters, which adds exact and ideal to the simple Boolean type. However, for the sake of documentation clarity, the intermediate type (present only because of quirks in WebIDL syntax) is ignored here.
