Another approach is to make your middleware "global" manually.

Way #1

Put it into all $middlewareGroups in app/Http/Kernel.php:

protected $middlewareGroups = [
    'web' => [
        //...
        YourGlobalMiddleware::class,
    ],

    'api' => [
        //...
        YourGlobalMiddleware::class,        
    ],
];

Way #2

Wrap all your routes into a group and assign your middleware to it:

Route::group(['middleware' => 'your_global_middleware'], function () {
    //all your routes
});

You can't. The route has not been matched yet. Route parameters are only available in route middleware.

Think about it: it doesn't make much sense for a global middleware to have access to the route's parameters, since every route has different parameters.

You can however get the URI segments:

$id = $request->segment(2);

Pass it the number (1 based index) of the segment you want.
