I am working project that require to get the URL when user share a selected text from the Chrome browser.

I was able to get the text by using ACTION_PROCESS_TEXT but how do I get the URL? so that I know where the text copied from.

Is it even possible?

You don't. If the user chooses "Share" in Chrome, and you have an activity with an <intent-filter> for ACTION_SEND and text/plain, your app should appear in the share sheet and, if the user chooses your app, your activity can get the text. However, that is a separate user action than the one for sharing text with your app with ACTION_PROCESS_TEXT.
