That side of thing isn't saved, it's done dynamically as the data is read. The JSON of the dashboard is saved in the `.kibana` index in Elasticsearch. ---

Hi Anmol , Previous versions of Kibana store dashboard definition in a folder called **dashboard**. ES exclude this feature from 4.0 onward. So if you check your address bar you can see the definition. Other option would be in kibana 4.2 ES again introduce export feature i.e under Settings---\>Objects . Hope this helps. Cheers VG ---
