Pre-built dashboards to different index

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

hey team,

I am currently using elk 6.0 and have the filebeat dashboards currently migrated to kibana. There is an nginx dashboard that works when i associate to the filebeat index. Howerver we have have switched all of our service application to the services index at our organization, how do i get the nginx dashboard that was working with filebeats to work with the new index. The service index is basically using the filebeat template under the hood.

thanks

If I understand your need, you want to switch all the visualizations on your dashboard to point to a new index? This is something we want to make easier (https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/3668), but for the time being the only option is to export and do a search/replace on the visualizations, or use an index alias (https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.0/indices-aliases.html). The latter most likely being the easier option.

Thanks Stacy

I will give this a shot.
