Hello @ReddyIshanvi
The second # in the URL https://experience.adobe.com/#/@abc/so:genera8/analytics/spa/#/workspace/edit/62bb42dc03db540279a7db is converted to %23 . It is because the # character is used in URLs to indicate an anchor or fragment identifier.
The fragment identifier is used to identify a specific section within a web page. When the browser encounters a # character in a URL, it treats the following characters as a fragment identifier and navigates to the specified section of the web page.
However, when a # character appears after the fragment identifier, it is no longer considered part of the fragment identifier but as a literal character. Therefore, to include a literal # character in a URL, it needs to be encoded as %23.
In the URL you provided, the second # character appears after the fragment identifier (#/workspace/edit/62bb42dc03db540279a7db), so it is encoded as %23 to be treated as a literal character rather than as part of the fragment identifier.

When I pasted the above link in browser I noticed that 2nd # is getting converted to %23. You need to check why this happened . Secondly you can skip the link validation on htl sightly using x-cq-linkchecker="valid" or skip.
