Export dashboards
You can export your MashZone NextGen dashboards.
Exporting dashboards creates a zip file that you can use to create a backup or to import your dashboards into another MashZone NextGen installation.
Procedure
1. Open a command window and move to the MashZoneNG-install/prestocli/bin folder.
2. Enter this command:
padmin exportDashboard -i identifier [-f output-file] [-l prestoURL]
-u username -w password [-v] [-o]
*-i identifier: Mandatory dashboard identifier. It can be "id=", "name=" or "all", enclosed in quots.
-i "name=dashboardname": If there are multiple dashboards with the same name only the first dashboard found will be exported.
-i "id=43243244434432": The dashboard ID (GUID) is unique in the MashZone NextGen system.
-i "all": Exports all dashboards for that user.
*-f output-file: Optional path and name for the export. If omitted, an output zip file is created in the folder in which this command is executed:
*Single export with option -i "id=3456" or "name=name" create a new file with name "name_guid.zip"
*Multiple export with option -i "all" create a new file dashboard-export-timestamp.zip
*-l prestoUrl: is optional. Use this if the MashZone NextGen Server is remote or if it is not running in Tomcat on the default Tomcat port. If you omit this option, this defaults to http://localhost:8080/mashzone/esd/api.
*-u username: MashZone NextGen user name to log in with. This account must have MashZone NextGen administrator permissions.
*-w password: is the MashZone NextGen password to log in with.
*-v: is an optional flag to activate verbose logging.
*-o: Optional flag to overwrite an existing export file.
Once the export command completes successfully, you can use the output file to import dashboards into MashZone NextGen.
Permissions for each dashboard were automatically stored in the zip file. If no permissions are assigned to the dashboard, the permission file saved is empty.
The zip file also includes information about the dashboard creator.
