 Hi @ivankk,

 Welcome back to trac and thanks for the ticket!

 There is no way to encode a boolean value in a URL. Instead, you need to
 define the expected type of your request argument using JSON Schema in
 your route's `args` definition: https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api
 /extending-the-rest-api/schema/ `rest_sanitize_boolean` will then convert
 a `'false'` string to a boolean `false` value.
