Hi all,

Recently when I'm exploring metricbeat I realised that there is some custom dashboard available in json format when we installed metricbeat. However, I'm not able to load the dashboard to kibana directly as mention in this [link](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/load-kibana-dashboards.html) because I'm not aware of where the kibana is being installed.

I'm also not able to load it directly using "Import Saved Objects" as it is not in ndjson format.

My question is, is there any other method that I can try to import? Or is there any ndjson format for Metricbeat-System-Overview dashboard?

Thanks.

Try using the dashboard import API: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/dashboard-import-api.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/dashboard-import-api.html)
