Investigate setting up Grafana Sentry Plugin with our UI to access errortracking data

Inline with the latest discussions related to our implementation of Gitlab Rails talking to errortracking API, we should investigate the usage of https://grafana.com/grafana/plugins/grafana-sentry-datasource/ from within our Observability UI to allow users to access errortracking data. The two upfront benefits of this are:

  • Better feature parity with generally available Sentry features (pending implementation on the ET API).
  • Minimising the need to make changes to the Rails API/Frontend corresponding to any changes that need to go into ErrorTracking implementation.
