https://<endpoint>/ui/#/explore/[@<start>,<end>]@<entity>=<entityValue>[@<entity2>=<entityValue2>@<entity3>=<entityValue3> ...]
<endpoint>

is the type of entity you want to explore, such as cluster, deployment, service, node, account, region, namespace, or pod.<entityValue>
is the value of the entity to explore.

Example
Let’s create a URL to open Explore on the primary-eks
cluster, kube-system
namespace, and metrics-server
service.
The custom URL that launches this log query in the Sumo Logic Search page would be similar to the following. The exact URL would depend on your Sumo Logic account endpoint, as listed in Sumo Logic Endpoints and Firewall Security.
https://service.us2.sumologic.com/ui/#/explore/@cluster=primary-eks@namespace=kube-system@service=metrics-server
