Hi,

Is there any way to store the generated data in the dashboards in such a way that once the user popluate the dashboard , it is stored somewhere , and then when the user re-visit the same dashboard it just load the saved result previously generated , rather than generating it again from elasticsearch.

You could save the dashboard with the specific time window. But Kibana will still connect to Elasticsearch and ask for the data every time you load the dashboard, you cannot change that.
