Legacy import 🔗
Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring made changes to the import and export functionality on December 8, 2020. Files exported after this date will use new endpoints and a new file format. A new Legacy Import option is available for any dashboard exported before December 8, 2020.
If you have exported dashboards for safekeeping, you should export them again in the new format. If you don’t have these dashboards in Infrastructure Monitoring, you can import them using the option and then export them again.
