Export and Import Dashboards

You can export and import your custom and pre-built dashboards as .config files. This capability is especially useful if you are managing multiple Exabeam instances and want to distribute your favorite dashboards to them. You can also use it to back up your dashboards.

Export Dashboards

  1. From the Dashboards home page, select one or more dashboards that you want to export. To select dashboards in the list or tile view, hover your pointer over a specific dashboard and click the check box that appears. A new set of options is displayed in the top left, next to the sorting and filtering options.

  2. From the new options, click Export.
