I'm concerned about the `#` character in the URL.
# means fragment and that's kept local and not sent to the server unless client side Javascript sends it to the server. I would use an identifier that doesn't already mean something to the URL.
See https://github.com/Cyphrme/URLFormJS#query-parameters-fragme... (Also see https://github.com/Cyphrme/Path)
For an example where this is relevant: https://cyphr.me/ed25519_tool/ed.html#?msg_encoding=Text&msg...
And see https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3986#section-3.5

How to store your app's entire state in the url
I wrote a library for storing application state in the URL. Its novel feature is using fragment query, which prevents the information from being sent to the server.

I would love to see it get more use.
Here's a small demo: https://cyphrme.github.io/URLFormJS/#?first_name=Bob&last_na...
See my other comment on this page for some other examples of its use.

How to store your app's entire state in the url
About 6 years ago I had to do this on a project. We had charts with a lot of options and we wanted them to be bookmarkable and shared between colleagues. We started with base64, soon moved to a custom encoding with version support https://github.com/ananthakumaran/u

Storing State in the URL
Another approach, keep a versioned schema for the filter object and save encoded representation in url.
