Hi Daley, Let's try to figure out your issue with importing the saved object through the Kibana interface. 1. The imported files are not stored in a directory or filesystem. They end up being stored in a hidden system index in Elasticsearch. 2. Using the Kibana interface utilizes logic intended to transform saved objects from older versions of Kibana. Can you offer more information about why you can not import the saved object using Kibana? ---
