React Router Pass Param to Component

If you want to pass props to a component inside a route, the simplest way is by utilizing the render, like this:

<Route exact path="/details/:id" render={(props) => <DetailsPage globalStore={globalStore} {...props} /> } />

You can access the props inside the DetailPage using:

this.props.match
this.props.globalStore

The {...props} is needed to pass the original Route's props, otherwise you will only get this.props.globalStore inside the DetailPage.


Use render method:

<Route exact path="/details/:id" render={(props) => (
    <DetailsPage id={props.match.params.id}/>
)} />

And you should be able to access the id using:

this.props.id

Inside the DetailsPage component


I used this to access the ID in my component:

<Route path="/details/:id" component={DetailsPage}/>

And in the detail component:

export default class DetailsPage extends Component {
  render() {
    return(
      <div>
        <h2>{this.props.match.params.id}</h2>
      </div>
    )
  }
}

This will render any ID inside an h2, hope that helps someone.


Since react-router v5.1 with hooks:

import { useParams } from 'react-router';

export default function DetailsPage() {
  const { id } = useParams();
}
