Data export

[Claire_Farrell]

Hi,

I'm looking to dump all my json docs to an s3 bucket in raw json format from kibana as part of a json script. I've read that a snapshot doesn't allow you to manipulate the json for other purposes.

Thanks,
Claire

Hello Claire,

@Claire_Farrell

I've read that a snapshot doesn't allow you to manipulate the json for other purposes.

Not sure what does that mean? ^

You can use saved objects UI to export searches/dashboards/visualizations/index patterns into a JSON.

Does that help?

Thanks,
Bhavya

I have the exported search JSON object, but I want to pull the data from that object locally to manipulate using a python script or http call, how would I achieve this?

You can use saved objects api?

Does that help?

Thanks,
