I have created certain dashboards on Global tenant and want to make those dashboards available on custom tenant. How to do that?

Hi @sayalipatil9689,

You would say you need to export/import the dashboards:

here are some sources you can get a bit more info:

However, when I tried to follow the workaround approach in another post (https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch-Dashboards/issues/831) to manually curl to import the pre-existing metricbeat dashboards to opensearch, I could not trigger the API call successfully,

For a dashboard, you’ll want all the associated visualizations as well, so you’ll want to make sure “Include related objects” remains checked. Then you can import from the same UI on the other instance.

Thank you for reply.

Without export/import is there any way where dashboards created on Global tenant can automatically be available for other tenants?
