I am able to save the dashboard if I create a new one, but not if I try to save changes to an existing Dashboard. I get the error below in the log `"message":"POST /api/saved_objects/dashboard/bc8dd500-61d9-11e9-9c3e-3ffdff8c9495?overwrite=true 503 30114ms - 9.0B"}` ---

Hi there! Some more details would help: - Could you provide any logs from your Kibana server? - Does this happen with every dashboard or just a specific one? - Do you have a proxy (such as Nginx) between the browser and the Kibana server? ---
