I have a Safari app extension that needs to know the url of the current active tab. When I press a button, a function in SafariExtensionViewController gets called with the following code:

let safari = SFSafariPageProperties()
let currentURL = safari.url

But currentURL is nil. Not sure what I'm doing wrong? The extension is for mac. Safari 14, macOS 11.1

What websites does your extension request access to in its Info.plist?

See https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariservices/safari_app_extensions/safari_app_extension_info_property_list_keys/adjusting_website_access_permissions?language=objc for how to configure that.
