You could give this a try - this gives the first 100 dashboards created and you could nail it down to the user.

[http://localhost:9200/.kibana/\_search?q=type:dashboard&size=100](http://localhost:9200/.kibana/_search?q=type:dashboard&size=100)

if you want individual ones you can include the title or the id via cmd line

`curl -s 'http://localhost:9200/.kibana/dashboard/_search?pretty=1,q=_id=New-Dashboard'`

then sort by user.

Let me know if it works

Thanks  
Rashmi
