XF 2.2 return thread URL by ID - opposite of getThreadFromUrl()

[FreelancerHH]

Is there an opposite of the function getThreadFromUrl() in Repository\Thread.php?

XF 2.1 - Is there a way to get thread ID from URL?

Is there a way to get the thread ID from the URL? Is there any API endpoint?

I would like to retrieve the completely SEO friendly URL (incl. processed route) of a thread by providing its ID.

Use the ID to get the thread record and pass that into the link builder, e.g.

$thread = \XF::em()->find('XF:Thread', $id);
if ($thread)
{
    $url = \XF::app()->buildLink('threads', $thread);
}
