Yes. To a visualization to dashboard you first need to creat it from Visualize tab and save it with a name. Afterwards you can add already created visualizations by clicking that button:

Automating Kibana Dashboard Creation

I am working on a project and I need to insert some of Kibana Graphs in the app.
I've created a Kibana Dashboard using a JSON file, to visualize the index a specific index from Elasticsearch.
I want to automatize the creation of the Dashboard to use it with different indexes. Elasticsearch/ Kibana 7.1.1
Not sure there is a more elegant way, but what you can do is:
Export the dashboard(s) and include the related objects under: Management -> Saved Objects
Edit the exported .ndjson file. For example if you are building on the index pattern filebeat-* search for that and replace it with whatever you want to change it to.
Reimport the .ndjson file under Import in the Saved Objects.

Accessing database data in Laravel Spark kiosk settings

I have added a new page under kiosk settings under API keys. On my new panel I have a select box and I need to populate it with values from a database table.
I'm not sure how to best do this. There seems to be this Spark.state object where the user and team values are put, so if I guess this might be a place.
Or else I load it with Ajax???
This is so easy in normal Laravel I just pass the object from the controller to the view and build the box on the blade view.
Am I missing something? How would i best do this?
Thanks
The way Spark is built with inline-templates, you can still use blade like normal.
You've created the new link in the menu sidebar, so now copy what the other settings are doing by having a tabcard be displayed when the menu item is clicked.
I recommend creating a new blade file for your new menu item and including it in that tabcard. You'll see some examples in the Spark settings blade file. Because you're using blade to render it, you don't need to load anything through AJAX.

Sitefinity 4 Products module Example doesn't create custom widget template

We are trying to use the Sitefinity 4 Products module that comes as an example in their SDK as a foundation for a couple custom content types we are creating.
When we use Products module example, we can see it created 2 new entries under the widget template to create custom widget templates. However, when we try to create the template, it will not show up in the list of available widget templates.
What is missing that is preventing the widget template we are creating from showing up on the list for editing. The widget template we create doesn't show up under All Templates nor my Templates.
I encountered this issue before, it turned out that my templates were set with a Build Action of "Content" instead of "Embedded Resource".
hope this is helpful!
I received a response from Telerik, it is a bug in their system that the widget module does not pick up the area name from custom modules. This should be fixed in a future release of Sitefinity. In the mean time, you can update the record in the sf_presentation_data table to contain an area_name so it will show up as an option in the admin.
