Opening specific folder in Ckfinder 3

I'm having difficulties passing a var to Ckfinder for it to open the folder matching the currently edited page.

The wanted folder has the same name as my database field "gallery" that I can pass in the url this way :

$url_edit = 'modifier-' . $_GET['page'] . '-' . $data["id"] . '-' . $data['gallery'] . '';
// RewriteRule ^modifier-(.*)-([0-9]+)-(.*)$ admin.php?modif=$1&id=$2&dir=$3 [L]

I think this part of Ckfinder's config.php could be the best spot to pass my var $_GET['dir'] and point to the specific folder (default : 'photos') :

if(isset($_GET['dir'])) {
    die(var_dump('DEBUG')); // DEBUG
    $galleryDir = '/' . $_GET['dir'];
}

$config['resourceTypes'][] = array(
    'name'              => 'Photos',
    'directory'         => 'photos' . $galleryDir . '' ,
    'maxSize'           => 0,
    'allowedExtensions' => 'bmp,gif,jpeg,jpg,png',
    'deniedExtensions'  => '',
    'backend'           => 'default'
);

I'm opening Ckfinder as a modal using this code from the official documentation (I didn't alter this as I'm not confortable with Javascript) :

var button1 = document.getElementById( 'ckfinder-galerie' );

button1.onclick = function() {
    selectFileWithCKFinder( 'ckfinder-input-1' );
};

function selectFileWithCKFinder( elementId ) {
    CKFinder.modal( {
        chooseFiles: true,
        width: 800,
        height: 600,
        onInit: function( finder ) {
            finder.on( 'files:choose', function( evt ) {
                var file = evt.data.files.first();
                var output = document.getElementById( elementId );
                output.value = file.getUrl();
            } );

            finder.on( 'file:choose:resizedImage', function( evt ) {
                var output = document.getElementById( elementId );
                output.value = evt.data.resizedUrl;
            } );
        }
    } );
}

PROBLEM : $_GET['dir'] doesn't seem to be passed through the modal, so it currently doesn't create the needed $galleryDir var (nor the die() function used for debug). Am I doing something wrong here ? I'm also open to other methods if this one isn't as good as I believe.

Thanks for the future help !

Thanks to the lead given by CBroe I figured out a way to pass the variable. Not 100% efficient but satisfying enough for my needs :

Passing the var in a session before loading Ckfinder :

if(isset($_GET['dir'])) { 
    $_SESSION['dir'] = $_GET['dir']; 
}

Then retrieving it in Ckfinder's config.php to dynamically create the new directory variable :

if(isset($_SESSION['dir'])) {
    $galleryDir = '/' . $_SESSION['dir'];
}

$config['resourceTypes'][] = array(
    'name'              => 'Photos',
    'directory'         => 'photos' . $galleryDir . '' ,
    'maxSize'           => 0,
    'allowedExtensions' => 'bmp,gif,jpeg,jpg,png',
    'deniedExtensions'  => '',
    'backend'           => 'default'
);

It works perfectly : the modal focuses on the wanted folder matching the edited page. Passing a specific directory url disallow the ability to browse the folders though as "directory" var considers itself as the root folder.
