Dear Wazuh Team,
Please let us know where to find the actual Wazuh Dashboard file (where all the Custom dashboards are available).

I am lolling forward to import wazuh dashboards to a new wazuh machine.

please be noted that we have Wazuh v4.3.9 (Kibana, Wazuh Server and Opensearch).

Hello John

Thanks for using Wazuh.

Unfortunately, I didn't completely understand your question.

I think that what you are looking for is the wazuh.yml file, used to configure the Wazuh plugin, the connection with the Wazuh APIs and the extensions of the app. These extensions are part of the Wazuh plugin, not custom dashboards. I don't know what you mean by custom dashboards. The location of the file is present in the link above.

Finally, the description of your environment is misleading. Kibana and OpenSearch are not compatible, so you are either using Elastic + Kibana or Wazuh Indexer + Wazuh Dashboard (based on OpenSearch and OpenSearch Dashboards respectively).

You are most likely using the latest, so the path to the file is: /usr/share/wazuh-dashboard/data/wazuh/config/wazuh.yml

Please, let me know if this was useful.

Best regards,
Alex

Ok let me elaborate my use-case:

I am panning to upgrade my existing wazuh to the latest available and for safe side I want to backup all my Dashboards and visualizations that we have create as of today.
I want you to please provide the method and location of wazuh dashboards and visualizations that can be saved as a file. And those saved files can be used later-on incase when newly upgraded wazuh somehow unable to load previous dashboards.

we just want to import previous dashboards and visualizations into our new environment.

Good morning John

It's much clearer now, thanks!

In that case, you can export your custom visualizations to a file as JSON/NDJSON format. For that, navigate to the Stack management < Saved objects section and export the visualizations you want.

Read more about this process in this article.


Let me know if that helps.

Regards,
Alex
