Admin account to view all the Dashboard created by individual users

[Nvijay92]

Hello Everyone,

We are having a situation on our Splunk system.

We recently noticed that there are several Dashboards which are being created by users and shared only for them.

Being an Administrator to the Splunk system we are unable to view those Dashboards in normal way until we query those Dashboard via rest.

Is there anyway to set view access for Administrator role to view all the Dashboards/reports/alerts/scheduled search that are being created by users

Thank you

I think if he got Admin access, he should be able to see from both the locations. 
Please correct me if I am wrong.

I agree that admin should be able to access all the dasboards but  thats not the case. I  am admin and not be able to access private dashboard created by other users.  Even when I access through URL its through error "Page not found". I tried to add few more roles/capabilities in Admin but didn't work.

Did you check in the all configurations as @isoutamo mentioned? 

I think something else got messed up with your roles. Trying adding "admin_all_objects" if it not preset already.

Yes workaround suggested by @isoutamo  worked like a charm.   I was able to change permission from settings>user interface>views. Just wondering why Admin doen't have permission to access it by default.

And admin_all_objects was alredy present. I think this is the default behavior. I check in mulitple installation and everywhere its same.

This is valid also with admin role. Via views you could see only your own or app/globally shared dashboards, but not anyone’s private KOs.

You should be able to see them by going to

settings>User Interface>Views

[isoutamo]

You couldn’t see those private KO e.g. dashboards via this path. The only way is see those via all KOs.

Hi,

I am looking for the same. Did you find a solution.

Thanks

[isoutamo]

You can see those via settings -> all knowledge object (or something similar).
