Hi,  
I want to programatically export/import a dashboard from one space to another including all its related saved objects. The steps I am thinking about are:

1. Create Space let's call it "Space-X"
2. Get id of the dashboard I want to import ( can be done manually in Kibana)
3. Get list of ids for all related saved objects (index-patterns, visualizations and saved searches)
4. Import everything at once

How can I get list of ids for all related saved objects programatically using Kibana REST API?

I found that I can do this easily using import/export dashboards APIs  
[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/dashboard-import-api-import.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/dashboard-import-api-import.html)  
[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/dashboard-import-api-export.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/dashboard-import-api-export.html)

But I don't know how can I set the space to where I want this dashboard to be exported
