Using API to change parent folder of dashboard

[jmn3]

Does any one know of a way (either using Sisense API's or another way) to change the parent folder of a dashboard that I am not the owner of? I am admin and have been tasked with organizing our dashboards better but do not want to change ownership of dashboard to myself in order to move dashboards to another folder.

Hi @jmn3 ,

I think you should be able to do this using Sisense API Update a dashboard funcion.

This funtion is used to partially update a dashboard, using the data provided in the body. For your use case, I would provide the parentFolder information.
If you do get an exception related to ownership, I would try to use the parameter Tenant ID to execute the function on behalf of the owner.

Please refer to the documentation here: https://sisense.dev/reference/rest/v1.html?platform=linux&spec=L2022.11#/dashboards/updateDashboard

I hope this gets you ton the right path! 🙂

Hello @jmn3 ,

As a sys admin, you will need to take over ownership of the necessary dashboards, re-arrange them and then grant back ownership.
You can do it with Paldi's "Dashboard Sharing Utility" 
We provide free trials so let me know if you would like to get it.

Feel free to reach out if you have further questions as we're always happy to help (:
