Dashboard "template"

[noamgal]

In kibana4 each visualization references to one search query and dashboard may contain many visualization objects.

If I want to have dashboard for each of my "n" customers I have to create "n" visualization objects of each type which differ in their search and "n" dashboards objects which references different visualization.
All look the same but differ only in their searches.

For large amount of customers it will be "impossible" to create dashboard per customer.
(For example I have to create metric visualization of total documents for customer "A", and for customer "B", etc...)

If all the visulizations will just reference the index and each dashboard will just reference custom search it will solve this problem. I will just have to create one visualization of each type and "n" dashboard whicj just reference different search.

You could simply tie all of the panels to a search that matches everything, then use the query filter bar on the dashboard to query one specific customer.

Hi @rashidkpc

Tried this right now and it didn't work well.
Indeed when I used the "embed this dashboard" and added it to my html I got my dashboard of my client data,
BUT now I got the query filter with my "customer:customer_name" query and one can change this query and get all the data of all other customers.
The other thing with that is now it shows the customer with all kibana menu (Discover, Visualize, Dashboard and Settings), and some malicious customer can see all my data and even do changes in my kibana - remove and change objects using settings tab...

Some bug, I guess?
