 In this example, you could use the same Twig expression `object_path('detail', schedule_item)` to generate the right route for the `schedule_item` depending on whether it is a `Talk` or a `Workshop`, and the appropriate parameters (either the `id` or the `slug`) would be passed automatically as well.

+## Expression Language support
+
+In an `#[ObjectRoute]` declaration, you can also use the `paramExpressions` key to use [Symfony Expression Language](https://symfony.com/doc/current/reference/formats/expression_language.html) expressions. 
+
+The expression gets access to two variables: `this` is the object that the route is generated on, and `params` gives access to all `extraParams` passed to the object router and the values that have been read from the object through property path expressions.
+
+The keys of `extraParams` indicate the parameter name. Prefixing the key with `?` means that the value should not be set if the expression evaluates to `null`.
+
+The motivating use case it that you might have a `BlogPost` object that can be archived. When you link to such a blog post, you need to include the post's year in an extra URL parameter: `?year=....`.
+
+This is not possible with Property Access paths alone, but can be done with Expression language support:
+
+```
+#[ObjectRoute(..., paramExpressions: ['?year' => 'this.isArchived ? this.year : null'])]
+```
+
+In this case, when the `BlogPost::isArchived()` method returns `true`, the value returned from `BlogPost::getYear()` will be included in the `year` parameter for the route. When it returns `false`, the `year` parameter is omitted.
