Kibana API saved object export/import issue.

[asazallesmilner]

Branching this off from where we made an initial comment as the issue looked similar

We see it when we try and use the saved objects import API with object exported with the export API.

@asazallesmilner are you importing the saved objects into the same space as they were exported from? we have tried going between two different clusters into the same space.

The logs given in the issue's description don't give us much to go on here, we ideally need verbose logs.

The steps to reproduce also don't mention exporting an importing saved objects so we need more info on how you came across the bug please.
For example:

• Does the new cluster have any data already?
  cluster already has minimal data
• Which space are you trying to import the saved objects into?
• Is the kibana you've exported the SO from on the same version as the one you're trying to import data into?
  both are 7.16. But one is 7.16.1 and other was 7.16.2
• Does the user have the same permissions in both clusters (assuming they are different clusters that is?)
  same permissions
• Are the licenses the same?
  same license
• Are the same plugins enabled?
  yes
  etc...

Deployment is different, one is k8s/eck, the other is cloud.
Some spaces DID get dashboards when we tried this but we have no idea what made a difference.

Created this is a separate issue to not muddy the waters in the other issue,
@TinaHeiligers
The error does look just like issue #120422
But we haven't been able to find the actual logs from the import url.

We saw it submit, says is succeeded, but most of the saved objects never shows up.

@dclassen-maxar is working this issue more closely then me.

@dclassen-maxar, please let us know if this describe the issue properly and if "missing" means that the saved objects aren't listed in the saved objects list view or that they don't get imported at all.

Hi, I think I figured out my issue with this. You can close this bug report as a user issue. Correct me if I’m wrong please, if you have any errors with an _import it will NOT import ANY objects including the successful results. I believe that to be the case and is why the import failed for this space but succeeded for all others.
