Hi and welcome to our community!

Seems there is an issue in the migration of Kibana's dashboards. So the first info we'd need is, from which version do you upgrade?

Thx & Best,  
Matthias

Fixed after updating kibana.yml (kibana.index)  
i updated the variable of kibana.index to be "gateway\_default\_dashboard" then restarted kibana and its working now

the problem was with creating kibana index with wrong name.
