    See answers for chrome.webRequest.onBeforeRequest to redirect a URL, and a [demo extension](https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/samples#search:onbeforerequest). – wOxxOm Aug 06 '18 at 19:27

You can use chrome.tabs.query too

chrome.tabs.query({currentWindow: true, active: true}, function (tab) {
      chrome.tabs.update(tab.id, {url: your_new_url});
});
