Let's say I'm in Page A(/path-a) and I go to page B(/path-b).
Afterwards, I click the "previous page" button in the browser.
In this case, how should I get the value of /path-b in PageA.tsx?
Update
I am using react-router-dom

Without knowing which libraries you're using, if any, this question is a bit ambiguous. Are you using react-router-dom, by any chance? – Evan Ottinger Mar 13 '23 at 16:19

Assuming you want a vanilla JS solution:
You can use
document.referrer. This will give you the url you come from, in the new page.For more information you can see this link
Assuming you want a React Router Dom solution:
This SO's answer from another post explains really well how to do it

`document.referrer` is empty if after back navigation the page is fetched from the cache. – Heiko Theißen Mar 13 '23 at 16:54
