I don't think there is an easy way to do this yet. The `.kibana` system index stores all information about index patterns and saved visualizations, but the fields and types are stored in nested fields. [Kibana currently does not have support for nested fields](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/1084).

Kibana visualizations are designed to use aggregations. However, it is possible to create a Saved Search in Discover and export single documents to CSV.

You cannot do that.
