Stop losing filter state: shareable URLs for AG Grid

Every team I’ve watched work with AG Grid eventually hits the same wall: someone builds the perfect filtered view, and the only way to share it is a screenshot and a list of instructions. I built ag-grid-url-sync to fix that — it serialises filter state into clean, human-readable query strings, covering all 26 native AG Grid filter operations, so a view is just a URL you paste into Slack.

I wrote up the design, the API, and the workflow problems that motivated it on my employer’s blog: read the full piece at NearForm →

The exact query-string grammar for version 0.3.0, with every operation token, value format and validation rule, is on this site: ag-grid-url-sync: the query-string grammar.

Revisions
