feature request: easy link for sharing #771

from Jack on Slack

I have one question/suggestion, is it possible to have the share option in the UI that generates the short link for that page? I could not find the option, so I had to open on traditional Explore and share the other tab for the team.

FYI: we can use the existing Short URL API. @grafana/grafana-frontend-platform - would it make sense to add it in a more generic way to all pages in Grafana (e.g. in the top bar) 🤔

While it's a good idea to make it more obvious that explore logs state can be shared by sharing a URL (and having generic short url functionality would be awesome), I think it might be more valuable to users to be able to share individual log lines in the logs panel like is supported in the table.

Looks like the original request was for short links as some systems do not allow sharing of links that are too long. I created https://github.com/grafana/explore-logs/issues/772 to track the logs panel log line link issue
