Retrieving Or Searching Dashboards Of A Particular User

[intapiuser]

Question: Is it possible to query for dashboards of a specific user?

Answer: the right direction is with the /admin endpoint.

You can use it to get the primary instances of all dashboards owned by a specific user by their username/email: For example:

/api/v1/dashboards/admin?dashboardType=owner&ownerInfo=true&ownershipType=allRoot&search=owner%3A%20test%40sisense.com&asObject=false

A breakdown of the query parameters used:

• "ownershipType=allRoot" means search all dashboards in the system, even those I (the current logged in user/owner of the token) have no access to
• "dashboardType=owner" means only get the "owner instance" of each dashboard (we don't need the viewer clones)
• "ownerInfo=true" isn't really required but it makes the response objects contain full owner info including an email so i can easily validate the results and filter out any incorrect ones, without having to do another call to /users
• "search=owner%3A%20test%40sisense.com" which unencoded is "owner: [email protected]". this is a free-text search that supports this specific search by username
