Hello, in older versions of Kibana it was possible to have URL parameters for dashboards filters, making it possible to have dynamic dashboards created with URL's.

This hasn't been available for many versions of Kibana and searching around on google I saw many people wanting this functionality but no good workaround.

So I have created a small python/flask service that can take simple URL parameters, generate the proper Kibana URL's and redirect the user to it.
