How can I identify which dashboards include a specific string?

One Splunk instance I use includes many Dashboards across many Apps. I need a way to identify all Dashboards that include a specific string in a search. Identifying the specific Dashboard panels would be a bonus, but not vital.

Simplified example:
The string eval some_field=47 may be used in various searches on multiple Dashboards, and I need to find all of the Dashboards where the exact string is used.

use the search bar on the top next to the activity button, I had this problem few years ago didn't know that the search bar on top can do that haha
