I use…

```
// update uri to request.
$uri = $uri->withPath($new_path);
$request = $request->withUri($uri);
// remove and then set new "request".
$this->CI->offsetUnset('request');
$this->CI->offsetSet('request', $request);

```

Add after this topic [How to apply new $\_SERVER['REQUEST\_URI'] to Slim?](http://discourse.slimframework.com/t/how-to-apply-new--server-request-uri-to-slim/1423)
