Feature Request
It would be nice to have the ability to see a list of all visualizations that are linked to a specific search. I have a bunch of saved searches, and several are linked to several other visualizations, and now I can't remember which visualizations are linked to which searches. So I have to either open every visualization and check which search it is linked to, or export all saved objects to a JSON file and write a script to process it.

If there was a button on the Management page, under Saved Objects -> Searches, beside each search called "List linked visualizations" I think that would be useful. Or it could be on the Discover page: if a Saved Search has been opened, there could by a list or a drop-down of the visualizations linked to that search.

I just would like to have something that's easier than checking each object one-by-one (or writing JSON-processing scripts)...

I think I understand the ask here,

GIVEN an individual search
and GIVEN a list of visualizations associated with the search
WHEN the user requests the search visualizations report
THEN the user receives a listing of all the visualizations associated with the search

Sound about right?

@deanpeters Yes, that sounds like one way to put it.

The information about which visualization is dependent on which search already exists in Kibana, but there's no easy way to see all of it (or even chunks of it) at once.

Related to #5947 and #8804

Thanks for the suggestion! Definitely something on our radar and we agree it'd be a great feature

That is possible via the dependency tree nowadays in the saved object view, when checking which othe saved objects use this.
