Multiple URL Opener › Tab groups

Open a list of links in a Chrome tab group

Tab groups keep related tabs together. Instead of opening links and grouping them by hand, open the whole list straight into a group.

How to do it

Paste your links into Multiple URL Opener.
Open the menu next to the Open button and choose Tab Group. The first time, Chrome asks for the tab groups permission.
Press Open. The links open together in one group.

Making a group by hand

Right-click any tab, choose Add tab to new group, then drag more tabs into it. That works for a few tabs; for a list of twenty or more, the extension is faster.

Questions

How do I create a tab group in Chrome?

Right-click a tab and choose Add tab to new group. To create one from a list of links in one step, use the Tab Group open mode in Multiple URL Opener.

Why does Chrome ask for a permission?

Tab groups use the tabGroups permission, which the extension requests only when you first open a list as a tab group. Everything else works without it.

What is the group called?

The extension titles it URL Opener and gives it a random Chrome color. To rename or recolor it, click the group label in the tab strip.

What if I decline the permission?

The links still open, as normal tabs in the current window, without a group.
