It seems that the description of the download_dashboard document is incorrect.

I found a statement in a previous issue on yelp / elastalert that the download_dashboard documentation was incorrect. Since download_dashboard is not used, we have not confirmed the operation.
Also, since it is described as kibana3, it is unknown whether it will work with kibana3 or later.

There is information that it does not work with Kibana 5

Load filters from a Kibana 5 dashboard

Looking at the source code, it seems that Kibana 5 and 6 are compatible, and kibana 7 is not.

I also checked use_kibana4_dashboard.
Since it worked with kibana 7.14.0, kibana 7 is also supported.

example

alert_text: "{}"
alert_text_args:
  - "kibana_link"
use_kibana4_dashboard: "http://127.0.0.1:5601/app/kibana#/dashboard/07bdfc10-f7fd-11eb-84fa-a33bdb7fffd8"

07bdfc10-f7fd-11eb-84fa-a33bdb7fffd8 is Dashboard ID.

download_dashboard doesn't work on kibana 7 as TODO commented.
