AR Background Renderer Feature Missing in URP
I am trying to run my AR app using the universal render pipeline but I am having issues setting it up.
My unity version is 2019.3.4.
My URP verision is 7.1.8. I have tried other versions but still not getting the option.
After I create a forward renderer and click the plus button to add a renderer feature i dont get an option of AR background renderer feature. The only option I get is of Renderer Objects.
How to get this option?

Just upgrade your ARFoundation and ARCore/ARKit version to 3.0.1 or above in the package manager. I had the same problem :)
Unity 2019.3.14f1 update button for AR Foundation and Core v2.1.8 is a greyed out "Up to date"
Nice one! Thanks for testing. I now have a working setup with Unity 2019.4 with URP + XR Interaction Toolkit + ARFoundation + ARKit

You won't get that option until you install ARFoundation. I just faced this same issue and I noticed I had not installed ARFoundation package. So just go to Window > Package Manager > Install ARFoundation and then you will be able to see the ARBackgroundRendererFeature.

You can select a different version of ARFoundation / ARCore XR by clicking the little arrow next to it.
Thank you sir! I was literally turning insane about how the package manager was telling me everything was up to date where it clearly wasn't. You're my hero!

For those like me who at this stage must still work with Unity 2019.4 "LONG TERM SUPPORT", I am sharing the manifest file that makes things work for me. I am using URP, XR Interaction Toolkit, ARFoundation and ARKit so this is for iOS. I haven't tested with ARCore but changing the entries for ARKit to ARCore might be enough.
