/api/kibana/settings gives me default space's advanced settings. What's the API to get and update advanced settings for a particular space? Did not find anything on [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/spaces-api.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/spaces-api.html) ---

Advanced settings are a type of saved object. You can import and export it with the saved object api which is also space aware: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.7/saved-objects-api-get.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.7/saved-objects-api-get.html) The `type` is called `config`. ---
