API for opened document URL

Ahh I see, well if its not working as expected the Sketch API's getSelectedDocument offers a few other approaches as well https://github.com/BohemianCoding/SketchAPI/blob/develop/Source/dom/models/Document.js#L38

(If you can, I would recommend using the Sketch API too!)

I had the same problem recently as well. I "fixed" it by still using the action api with OpenDocument but then waiting for a little:

export function OnOpenDocument() {
  setTimeout(function () {
    var UI = require('sketch/ui')
    var document = require('sketch/dom').getSelectedDocument()
      UI.alert("Path of this document", String(document.path))
  }, 1);
}

You can read more about the JavaScript SetTimeout function here.` It's definitely no good coding style – but it works for my purpose.
