-This generates a `AV4REOpp5NkDleZmzKkE.ndjson` file inside dashboard directory in the redis module.
-It contains all dependencies like visualizations and searches.

 NOTE: The dashboard ID is available in the dashboard URL. For example, in case the dashboard URL is
 `app/kibana#/dashboard/AV4REOpp5NkDleZmzKkE?_g=()&_a=(description:'Overview%2...`, the dashboard ID is `AV4REOpp5NkDleZmzKkE`.
