This has got to be a trivial question with a simple answer, but I haven't been able to find it. Having gone to some trouble to create a complex set of filters on one page, eg Discover, using the "Add a filter+" button, how do I get another page, eg a dashboard, to use the same set of filters without the slow, tedious and error-prone process of creating them again manually from scratch? (I've found the "save search" command on the Discover page but haven't found any way of loading the search on the Dashboard page, whether in Edit mode or not. This is Kibana 6.3.1 but I'm also using 6.2.x and 6.4.x.) ---

If you "pin" the filter it will follow you around through visualize and dashboard: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/9/e9c6d663de8298d6a13bc436548a31e5e324b843.png) ---
