I found a way in kibana UI-\> management-\> saved objects to export all objects at a time in export.ndjson file.
But I want to export all saved objects by a single query in kibana 7.6.2.
I tried to export all saved objects by API
POST [http://localhost:5601/api/saved\_objects/\_export](http://localhost:5601/api/saved_objects/_export)
But it is not working.
Someone kibana expert can help me.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Could you provide more information into what is not working? What error are you getting? Please note that this is a POST request and you'll need to include`Content-Type: application/json` and `kbn-xsrf: true` headers. Here are some [examples](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/master/saved-objects-api-export.html#ssaved-objects-api-create-example)

Hi,
I am using postman and I also including Content-type and kbn-xsrf.
This is my my http request
```auto
POST /api/saved_objects/_export HTTP/1.1
Host: myhostname:5601
kbn-xsrf: true
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Basic ZWxhc3RpYzpvSHlOR2h5Und5M3VGZ2paN0wweA==
Cache-Control: no-cache
Postman-Token: c6148e7c-3006-45e5-525c-b739e6c167fa
```
And it is giving erorr
```auto
{
"statusCode": 400,
"error": "Bad Request",
"message": "\"value\" must be an object",
"validation": {
"source": "payload",
"keys": [
"value"
]
}
}
```

The body needs to contain either `objects` or `type`. Try adding `"type": "index-pattern"` in your request body.

The request seems fine to me. Could you try cURL and check if you're getting the same error?
