| Dec 7, 2022 at 19:38 | comment | added | user20377051 | that's my question. I am not sure where to save this information. I was hoping there was going to be some rest api exposed by sharepoint which can save filters. What would you suggest? | |

You should be able to generate URL in above format on the fly based on user selections in your custom application. If you want to create list views with fix colum and values filtering, consider creating "views" in your list. | |

| Dec 7, 2022 at 15:34 | comment | added | user20377051 | I am showing the list in an external application and I would like to add filtering to the list. Is it possible to store this filtering in the same way as sharepoint is doing? Save the filtering using rest api and retrieve it the same way as you mentioned above? | |
| Dec 7, 2022 at 15:03 | comment | added | Ganesh Sanap - MVP | Where you want to use REST API and how you want to store the filtering? If you want to open the filtered list view by using URL, you can build the filtered link/URL in format given in my answer (Note: format may change based on column type & settings like single selection, multiple selection). | |
