REST API > Export Dashboard as PDF

Is there a REST API method to export an existing dashboard as PDF (like I would do in the web interface)? The documentation does not really provide any hints or I am not seeing them.

Hi neptoon, It doesn't seem that there is an endpoint available in the REST interface, but you should be able to use the URL described here : https://answers.splunk.com/answers/223655/can-i-export-pdf-via-rest.html

curl -u admin:{{password}} -k 'https://localhost:8089/services/pdfgen/render?input-dashboard={{your_dashboard}}&namespace={{your_namespace}}&paper-size=a4-landscape' >> test.pdf

Please let me know if this answers your question!
