In Angular is there a way to get text from the URL and set it as a variable?

Question

I have dropdown filters that filter some data, I'd like to be able to set one of these dropdowns with a value from the URL. Is this possible?

Checkout the [URL](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URL/URL) API. — Get Off My Lawn, Jul 18 '22 at 19:36
`window.location.href` gives you the current URL. If you want url parameters you can use the `ActivatedRoute` service to do the parsing for you. — Chris Hamilton, Jul 19 '22 at 01:02

Than you can for sure use the url to compose the options in the dropdown based on your custom logics.
