JS button to create a new dashboard

Hi all,

First post in SPLUNK and I'm not even going to pretend I know the in's and out's of everything that I am currently trying to achieve so I apologise if this is an easy answer...

I have created a dashboard that contains an HTML form and through JS magic it does everything I need it to, which includes a 'submit' button that is connected to an HTML table in a different panel. When the button is clicked the table is updated with the relevant information - Happy days. Under the HTML table, I have another button that when clicked I want it to create a new dashboard that displays that table (there is more to it but for now I just need it to create a new dashboard). 

After a bit of research, I stumbled across AJAX but I'm constantly receiving a 404 error. I understand that a 404 is resource not found, but every document I find indicates that this is the correct resource. My SPLUNK Enterprise version is currently running on my Laptop (127.0.0.1:8000) but I am at a frustrating loss now...

 

 

document.getElementById('confirmButton').addEventListener('click', function() {
    var dashboardData = {
        name: 'newDash',
        'eai:data': '<dashboard><label>$name$</label><description>$goal$</description><row><panel><html><h1>something</h1></html></panel></row></dashboard>',
    };
    $.ajax({
        url: '/serviceNS/nobody/search/data/ui/views',
        type: 'POST',
        data: dashboardData,
        success: function(response) {
            console.log('Success:', response);
        },
        error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
            console.error('Error:', textStatus, errorThrown);
        }
    });
});

 

 


The issue seems to indicate the url section is wrong, but if anyone could help point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it.

Kind Regards,
