I'm struggling to find a way to get the current path being rendered. I don't need the hostname, I just need the relative path.

Inside getStaticProps then:
* dynamic params are available in the context: https://nextjs.org/docs/pages/api-reference/functions/get-static-props#context-parameter
* other parts of the pathname can be hardcoded

gotcha. After struggling to find another solution, I ended up hardcoding the known parts and using the params as you suggest. Thanks for clarifying that my eventual solution is correct, I appreciate you taking the time to help me out.
