Export saved objects
Retrieve sets of saved objects that you want to import into Kibana. You must include type or objects in the request body. The output of exporting saved objects must be treated as opaque. Tampering with exported data risks introducing unspecified errors and data loss.
Exported saved objects are not backwards compatible and cannot be imported into an older version of Kibana.
NOTE: The savedObjects.maxImportExportSize configuration setting limits the number of saved objects which may be exported.
