Ok, have done a ton of searches to try and find this and nothing seems to be there. Everything seems to point to the older versions of kibana not version 4. I want to import a dashboard - using elasticsearch, kibana - If I go to settings I do not see anything that allows me to import a json file. If looking at schemas I can't find any of this ----- By default, importing of schemas is disabled. It can be re-enabled via the _Controls_ tab of the dashboard settings screen by checking the _Local file_ option. Schemas can be imported from the_Load_ icon in the top left of the dashboard by selecting _Advanced_ and choosing a file to import. Is all of this just on earlier versions or am I such a newbi that my vision is impaired (I do wear glasses) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
