Does the Splunk add-on python code option provide any functions to create dashboards with?

Hello, I've been working with the add-on python code option for some time now and I find it very useful and easy when it comes to sending events to the splunk(using the ew.write_event() function). Are there other functions, provided by splunk, to create dashboards and panels (such as <object>.create_dashboard()) that I could use (besides using rest API).

@davidtsitsi - Rest API is the way to go. - https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.0.0/RESTREF/RESTknowledge#data.2Fui.2Fviews

Though you can take some references from Splunk Python SDK - https://github.com/splunk/splunk-sdk-python

I hope this help!!!
