How to export Kibana (Dashboards, Visualizations and Searchs) from Command line (e.g curl) to json file

Elastic Stack Kibana

Dear Community,

I have Kibana 6.2.3 installed on my nodes and I wanted to know how I can export (Dashboards, Visualizations and Searchs) to a JSON file in order to backup the définitions in a versionning control system like git.

I wanted to make a script that will export the data in json file and after pushing it to git.

Is there a way i can query from elasticsearch the .kibana index to extract those data ?

Thanks in advance,

Best Regards,

The objects are saved in the .kibana index in ES. You can just query the ES cluster and parse the result, but it will imply some work.
There is also a Saved Object API: https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/11632 but we cannot guarantee it won't change over time. It's work in progress pretty much, but usable.
