I created a new plugin. on a button click, I want to redirect to the plugin page, I did that by doing the following:

```auto
const urlToplugin= "/app/myScheduler";
window.location.href = urlToplugin

```

, but I want to pass some data to the plugin. How can I do that?

A common way to do it is by storing the data in browser storage.
