Is there any way in splunk to pull all the list of dashboards, macros, saved searches, and data models that uses the splunk internal indexes (_*)?

Any suggestions or ideas would be great.

@dmarling and I worked on and presented a solution at Splunk .Conf19 that gives a user the ability to look at every knowledge object they have permissions to view. We cover how to query for it, as well as cover related export/import/search solutions in our presentation:

You'll want to pay attention to the CYA Master Query, which you can modify to look only in the internal indexes, as you wish. We've posted the code on Github: https://github.com/paychex/Splunk.Conf19
