Check this [old post](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/best-approach-to-create-visualizations-dashboard-via-api-calls/270603), it mentions about using the Create Saved Object API from Kibana to create Visualizations.

But a couple of things:

- There is no documentation on how to create visualizations/dashboards using the API, you would need to test yourself, basically exporting some visualizations and trying to replicate it.
- The API is deprecated and will likely be gone in some next release.
