Hello,

I am wondering if I could export/import saved searches via curl request from kibana5.

Regards,  
Peter

Hi

This can be done , but not in a supported manner in Kibana5. Perhaps you could take snapshot of the .kibana index? [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-snapshots.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-snapshots.html). and restore it back. You can use Curator to schedule the snapshot.

Thanks  
Rashmi
