Is there a way to create default visualization templates in Kibana and apply the template for similar data set?
With different data sets I would be creating the same set of graphs, so would be really helpful if that can be achieved in Kibana

Hello,
That is currently not possible in Kibana, but it has been part of discussions about the future of Kibana and it's definitely something that we want to look into.
For now, if the data sets are using the same field names, you can achieve a "lite" version of this, by exporting and importing the visualizations for the new index patterns.

Hi Marius,
Thanks for getting back. Will explore the export & import visualization options
