Explore actions

The actions in the top-right corner of the Explore screen apply to the current view and query configuration — letting you share your investigation, create alerts from patterns you've found, or reset and start fresh.

Copy URL

Generate a shareable link that preserves the current query, filters, time range, and view state. Anyone who opens the link loads the same Explore configuration.

Create alert

Create an alert based on the current query. Use this when a query reveals patterns you want to monitor automatically — such as recurring errors or abnormal log volume.

Save view

Save the current Explore configuration as a saved view. This stores the query, filters, time range, table layout, and other settings so you can return to the same investigation later.

For detailed instructions, see Explore tabs, views, and queries.

Reset

Clear the current query configuration and restore the default Explore state. This removes the active query, filters, and grouping settings.
