Renaming example Kibana dashboards

[sgiri]

Is there a way to rename the example Kibana Dashboards that comes with filebeat? The Configuration Dashboard and Configuration Template do help in changing the elasticsearch index name and index name defined in the dashboard, however doesn't have the option to rename the dashboards.

The default kibana dashboard, for example, is "[Filebeat Apache2] Access and error logs", my objective is to change it to [Customname Apache2] Access and error logs". I also want the change to be reflected in example visualization samples and saved search samples. I would really appreciate any suggestions.

The dashboards are loaded from JSON files in the kibana/6 folder of Filebeat. You could do a sed to replace all instances of [Filebeat *] with [Customname *]. Obviously a hack, but should work.
