I have multiple data views maintained in Kibana's Discover. I am happy to switch between data views from the UI on Discover and see the contents of each data view, but I noticed that the URL does not contain any information about the data view. Is there a good way to get project members to see the Discover page "for this data view"? For example, can I give each data view a separate URL? We currently operate by sending the Discover URL, opening the link, and then switching the data view to the desired one, but it confuses the members for a little while if the first data view they see is not the one they want. ---

You an use the “share” button at the top of the page to generate a link that you can share and send. > **[Reporting and sharing | Kibana Guide \[8.12\] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/reporting-getting-started.html)** ---

Thanks for the reply. That is exactly the link I am talking about. This URL does not contain the data view information. Please create two data views to try and create a URL for sharing in each. They will be identical. ---

Hi @its-ogawa, What version do you use? ---

Hi. @jughosta Thanks for your reply. The version is 8.6.2. ```auto # curl -XGET http://localhost:9200 { ... snip ... "version" : { "number" : "8.6.2", ... snip ... }, "tagline" : "You Know, for Search" } ``` ---

Thanks! Before changing the data view and sharing the link, do you open a saved search or start a new one? What sharing option do you use? ---

I get distinct, different URLs that open to the views I expect. It seems that jughosta will be able to help you, though. ---

Thanks, Julia Yes, I am. I open a saved search. When I switch data views and create a shared URL, the URL link is still in the last saved data view. Let me be more specific.--- - I maintain two or more different servers (let's say, A, B) - I collect maillog from A, B using Filebeat - I customize the fields through Logstash filters before storing them in Elasticsearch - Kibana customizes the view to show only a part of the customized fields. - We display the maillog of A, give it a name (let's say, maillog view) with the view customized, and save it. - Next, when you switch data views and select B, the view remains the same and the B maillog is displayed. - Now, when I create a URL to share and access the URL, the A maillog is initially displayed (because I customized the view and saved it in the A state) - I believe it would be useful to have a direct access link to the B log as well! - I would like to send the view I have created to the person in charge of both A and B. ---

This issue with sharing modified saved searches was fixed in 8.9. For earlier versions only creating separate saved searches would work. ---
