Archiving Your Beat Dashboards
editArchiving Your Beat Dashboards
editThe Kibana dashboards for the Elastic Beats are saved under the etc/kibana directory. To create a zip archive with the
dashboards, including visualizations and searches and the index pattern, you can run the following command in the Beat
repository:
make package-dashboards
The Makefile is part of libbeat, which means that community Beats contributors can use the commands shown here to
archive dashboards. The dashboards must be available under the etc/kibana directory.
Another option would be to create a repository only with the dashboards, and use the GitHub release functionality to create a zip archive.
Share the Kibana dashboards archive with the community, so other users can use your cool Kibana visualizations!
