Nagios XI dashboard definition location?

[gormank]

I need to create a bunch of dashboards and would like to know where whatever defines a dashboard is saved. Ideally I'd like to automate defining them since the ones I'm creating are very similar.
I've been looking at docs and searching the internet, but nothing seems discuss anything other than pointing and clicking to define them.

There is no way to easily do this, these are stored in the nagiosxi db in the xi_usermeta table with a keyname 'dashboards' for each user whereas the keyvalue is a serialized array that contains all the dashboards for a particual user.... For example a user with just a couple dashboards would have the following in the keyvalue field:
