Hi,

If you upgraded the splunk enterprise recently to 8.x version, then this is happening due to one of your dashboards in your app has an empty title. 
I faced the same situation and troubleshoot a lot to find the root cause and I found the answer from Splunk Community.

Thanks,
Purush

Good to know. I was getting this quite often when try to update some apps from splunkbase on my dev environment in macOS.
