    Hi guys, is it possible to get the URL of the open page on chrome via Share?

    I sometimes share text from webpages to various text files and would like to attach the URL from where the text came from.

    Is this possible in AutoShare or any other AutoTools?

    Thanks

    HH

    If when you share the URL the url bar is showing you can get its contents with AutoInput UI Query :)

    That works a treat!

    Just a thought, is it possible to capture other information like which app the text was sent from like a Kindle?

    Yep! Check the other variables in AutoInput UI Query. One of them is the app that was "captured" :)
