Amazon OpenSearch UI now supports one-click dashboard migration

Posted on: Jul 17, 2026

Amazon OpenSearch Service now supports one-click migration from legacy OpenSearch Dashboards to OpenSearch UI, for both OpenSearch domains and serverless collections. OpenSearch UI is the new, zero-downtime, serverless interface for search and unified observability across multiple data sources. With this launch, the multiple tenants and thousands of saved objects you created in legacy OpenSearch Dashboards become reusable in your OpenSearch UI applications, reducing the operational complexity of moving between interfaces.

With one-click migration, you can move your existing tenants and saved objects into OpenSearch UI workspaces without recreating them manually. The mechanism works for OpenSearch Dashboards created under Amazon OpenSearch Service domains and serverless collections. You can migrate everything into a new workspace or into an existing one. If you have created multiple tenants in your OpenSearch Dashboard, you have the option to either convert them into a single workspace or keep them separate for different teams.  

This feature is available in all AWS Regions where OpenSearch UI is available. To get started, see Using OpenSearch UI in the Amazon OpenSearch Service Developer Guide. Visit the OpenSearch UI Help page for detailed feature tutorials. To learn more about the service, see the Amazon OpenSearch Service product page.
