Hi,

I am using Kibana 7.2. Is there any way to create any saved\_object (index-pattern, visualization, dashboards) by giving our own id manually in UI (not by API). Instead kibana assigning its own id.

I am using free version of Kibana.  
Can we please get some help here?

Hey @kibana-rocks, this isn't available in the UI. It's only available in the [Saved Object APIs](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/saved-objects-api.html)
