Hi,

I download the dashboard sample from the github samples project.  
But got a error when I import it in the kibana saved object. We use the Elastic Cloud, version is 5.6.2.  
I had set the index patterns for the .watcher-history-\*.

How to import it?

Thank you

The template I got from [https://github.com/elastic/examples/tree/master/Alerting/watcher\_dashboard](https://github.com/elastic/examples/tree/master/Alerting/watcher_dashboard)  
We use the Elastic Cloud, version 5.6.2

Thank you
