Applescript for Chrome

Useful AppleScript to Copy the Page URL and Title

November 8, 2022 by cryan.com

The following is a quick AppleScript that I created to add the URL of the current page to the clipboard. This has the advantage of creating a simple, easy-to-read URL in markdown format, which I can then copy and paste into Slack or an email.

If you would like to copy/paste the raw code, here it is.

tell application "Google Chrome"
	set broswerurl to get URL of active tab of first window
	set browsertitle to get title of active tab of first window
	set the clipboard to "[" & browsertitle & "](" & broswerurl & ")"
end tell
