Comments.Text: Thanks, but most of the stuff I tried is already based on that article. In the code snippets from the article, they loop over the  `craft.app.routes.getConfigFileRoutes`  . The currently applied route is never fetched.

  I'm using a dynamic route that loads a template. I'm on a multisite setup with a language switch in the header menu.
  
  To be able to switch between sites or languages, the dynamic routes need to have some sort of connection.
  
  I figured out you can define routes in a site-specific context and add extra attributes (e.g. 'name') like this:
  
  ```
  //routes.php file
  return [
    'enSite' => [
        'example/{tag}' => ['template' => 'example/_index.html',
                            'name' => 'example',
                           ],
    ],
    'nlSite' => [
        'voorbeeld/{tag}' => ['template' => 'voorbeeld/_index.html',
                              'name' => 'example',
                             ],
    ],
  ];
  
  ```
  
  Now I can tell craft that the routes with the same `name` are variants of each other for the language switcher.
  
  All i need now is the "current applied route". I can't find this information anywhere. I was expecting it in `craft.app.requestedRoute`, but that's not the case.
  
  Does anyone know how to get the current applied route in Craft?
  
  Others with similar issues loop over `craft.app.routes.getConfigFileRoutes` and match on the route keys, but with tokens like `{tag}` in your roue this is not an option.
