I searched postMessage, but only found examples of iframe resizing.

I wonder if you have any way to get the URL of the main page where my iframe is inserted using this method or some other.

javascript url iframe cross-domain

You can use the following:

var parentURL = window != window.parent ? document.referrer : null;

When your page loads into an iframe, window is different from window.parent. In that case, document.referrer will have the URL of the page that uploaded your iframe.
