Unable to get current Category ID in category page

I’m creating a shortcode to use in both posts and categories.

To make this shortcode work I just need to get the category ID.

If I’m in a post it works fine, but if I’m in a category there doesn’t seem to be a way to access the current category ID.

If I try to debug it I see that the shortcode inserted in a category template (cloud template) doesn’t recognize is_tax() or is_category()… but always falls under is_single().

is (is_tax()) {
// Don't work
}
elseif (is_category()) {
// Don't work
}
elseif (is_single()) {
// Single Post => Works well
if (get_post_type() === 'post') {
$post_id = get_the_ID();
$post_title = get_the_title($post_id);
$categories = get_the_category($post_id);
if (!empty($categories)) {
$category_id = $categories[0]->term_id;
}
} elseif (get_post_type() === 'tdb_templates') {

}
}

Can you help me?

I solved it thanks to this code:

$tdbLoadDataFromId = tdb_state_content::get_wp_query()->queried_object_id;
$current_category_obj = get_category($tdbLoadDataFromId);
if ($current_category_obj) $category_id = $current_category_obj->cat_ID;
