If you want to show link in your system configuration, then please follow below steps :

You need to add field in your system.xml file like this

<field id="link" translate="label" type="label" sortOrder="1" showInDefault="1" showInWebsite="0" showInStore="0">
    <label>Click here to see the logs</label>
    <frontend_model>Vendor\Module\Block\Adminhtml\System\Config\Form\Field\Link</frontend_model>
</field>

Here we used frontend_model and we will create Block for it here in custom module..

app/code/Vendor/Module/Block/Adminhtml/System/Config/Form/Field/Link.php

Content for this file..

<?php
namespace Vendor\Module\Block\Adminhtml\System\Config\Form\Field;

class Link extends \Magento\Config\Block\System\Config\Form\Field
{
    public function __construct(
        \Magento\Backend\Block\Template\Context $context,
        array $data = []
    ) {
        parent::__construct($context, $data);
    }

    public function render(\Magento\Framework\Data\Form\Element\AbstractElement $element)
    {
        $element->unsScope()->unsCanUseWebsiteValue()->unsCanUseDefaultValue();
        return parent::render($element);
    }

    protected function _getElementHtml(\Magento\Framework\Data\Form\Element\AbstractElement $element)
    {
        return sprintf(
            '<a href ="%s">%s</a>',
            rtrim($this->_urlBuilder->getUrl('custom/module/link'), '/'), //You need to change this link (Use your grid link like 'sales/order/index' will redirect you on order grid page.)
            __('Marketo Logs')
        );
    }
}

Hope this will help you!
