Support for Ad Hoc filters

[johnewhitley]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently, when using the cloud logging data source plugin in grafana, we can not use Ad Hoc grafana filters to drive changes in the visualization.

Grafana Ad Hoc vars

Describe the solution you'd like Ideally, I'd like to be able to click a log line in a log dashboard, click on the "+" or "-" button to create an Ad Hoc filter to show me matches (or non matches) of logs. Ex below:

This is supported by several other datasources. Loki doc shows support for Ad Hoc filtering.

This would allow folks to drive queries natively in the dashboards without having to use explore or open/edit a dashboard to update/edit the query.

When you click the + sign, the plugin will update with the field. You do need to click the Run query button to run the new query though.

Where is the run query button?

Ah yeah, that does work, but this does not work when you use the cloud logging data source as a dashboard whereas Loki does.
