Import dashboards

You can import dashboards in MashZone NextGen.

The dashboards are saved in a zip containing the dashboard definition, resource policy, and dashboard permissions, etc.. If you import a dashboard including permissions, the creator of the dashboard can view and edit the dashboard. The importer of a dashboard automatically becomes the creator of the dashboard if the dashboard is imported without permissions.

Procedure

  1. Open a command window and move to the <MashZoneNG-installation>/prestocli/bin folder.
  2. Enter this command:

    padmin importDashboard [-l prestoURL] -f input-file -p importPermissions -u username -w password [-v] [-o]

Once the import command completes successfully, you can use the imported dashboards in MashZone NextGen.

If you have imported dashboards from Presto 3.9 into MashZone NextGen, save the imported dashboards in edit mode of the widget before you display them in view mode. Otherwise, an error message is displayed.
