Filter error list by error status (ignored/ resolved/ unresolved)

Problem to solve

Errors are often plentiful, noisy, and challenging to dig through to find the important ones that are impacting users. As we are displaying a list view of Sentry errors in GitLab, we need to provide users with tools (such as search, sort, and filter) to refine this list according to criteria that is important to them.

Filtering the error list by error status is very important for the user to be able to retrieve the errors that's been ignored or resolved, whether intentionally or by accident.

Further details

This work supports the Error Tracking Vision.

Proposal

Add the ability to filter the error list by the error status (ignored, resolved, and unresolved) within the search bar. The error list will be filtered by status: unresolved by default. This design is reusing the same component as the Issues search.

Designs

First dropdown to choose the filter type Choose filter option Filter applied
1st_dropdown 2nd_dropdown final_state

Note: as per recent discussions, the icon for status in the first dropdown will be warning rather than the eye shown in the design above.
