Short answer

How do I move dashboards between Kibana spaces?

Tell your AI which objects you want to move and where they should go. It finds the specific dashboards or visualizations and copies them to the target space for you. You'll get a clean set of objects in the new environment without manual exports.

Where every object lands.

The outcomes of your request.

Depending on what you ask, your AI handles the heavy lifting of locating and duplicating your data.

SYNCED

Identical dashboard copies

The AI finds your existing dashboards and places exact copies in the new space. Your visualizations stay intact.

LOCATED

Targeted object searches

The AI scans your Kibana environment to find the specific saved objects you mentioned. You don't need to know the exact IDs.

VERIFIED

Object details retrieved

Your agent pulls the specific configuration of a dashboard to ensure it's ready for the move. This confirms the data is correct before copying.

MANUAL

Human review required

You decide when a move is complete. The AI handles the transfer, but you remain in control of which spaces are modified.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

The AI uses specific Kibana tools to bridge the gap between your different spaces.

  2. Inspect the data

    It looks at the specific details of the selected objects to prepare for the transfer.

    get_saved_object

  3. Execute the move

    The AI creates the new versions of your dashboards in the destination space.

    copy_saved_objects

  4. Confirm completion

    The AI verifies that the objects were successfully placed in the new environment.
