Fetch Url Segments

Question

I want to fetch the url segments of the current page. I was using Web Forms earlier. In Web Forms I was using Request.Url.Segments method to do that. But this method is not working in ASP.NET Core 2.2.

string[] urlSegments = Request.Url.Segments;

Answer 1

Uri.Segments works with .net core . You can use :

string[] urlSegments = new Uri(Request.GetDisplayUrl()).Segments;

GetDisplayUrl() is an extension method from the following namespace : Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.Extensions :

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.Extensions;

Answer 2

You could easily achieve this with a simple .Split() like:

var stringArray = "stackoverflow.com/questions/57798723/fetch-url-segments".Split('/');

Outputs:

stringArray[0] // stackoverflow.com
stringArray[1] // questions
