Redirect Tab Closer

This extension automatically closes the launched window for Bluejeans/Zoom/WebEx meetings + Slack URLs.

What is Redirect Tab Closer?
Redirect Tab Closer is a Chrome extension that automatically closes the tabs created when launching Bluejeans, Zoom, and Slack meetings or links. It uses a Chrome Context Script to send a message to a background page to close the tab. No special permissions are required, except access to the redirect page with Bluejeans, Zoom, or Slack URLs. The extension aims to provide user-configurable URLs for auto-closure in the future.

Summary

Automatically closes the Bluejeans, Zoom, WebEx and Slack tabs that are created when launching a meeting or a Slack link.

Uses Chrome Context Script to send a message to a background page to close the tab. Requires no special permissions (except access to the redirect page with Bluejeans, Zoom or Slack URLs). Based on the Zoom Closer extension.

Will try to extend this in the future to allow for user-configurable URLs that will get auto-closed.
