Magento 2: Rewrite category URLs programmatically

Question

I want to remove category ids from category URLs and replace them with the current category or subcategory name.

Is this possible?

Any help will be appreciated.

I think you don't need to replace it programmatically. Please check the admin settings.

• Admin->Stores->Configuration->Catalog->Catalog->Search Engine Optimization
• Catalog->Categories->Select Category->Search Engine Optimization

After updating them, you have to flush the caches and run the reindex.
