between different dashboards, and to allow users to quickly filter using the
query bar without affecting the provided filters.

### "My Dashboard" contains legacy visualization: "My Visualization" (metric, TSVB)

All visualizations must be created using [Lens](https://www.elastic.co/kibana/kibana-lens) or [Vega](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/vega.html).

The only exceptions are
- Markdown panels created from the dashboard application. There are no plans to deprecate these.
- TSVB markdown. Support will eventually be removed, but this is
currently allowed because we do not yet offer an alternative for
injecting analytics into markdown. Prefer the dashboard markdown
panels when possible.
- The legacy dashboard controls ("input-control-vis"). These should be replaced
with the [new dashboard controls](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/add-controls.html) but we are not currently
enforcing this with tooling.

**Note:** most legacy visualizations can be converted by selecting "Convert to Lens"
from the dashboard panel context menu or by clicking "Edit visualization in Lens"
after opening the visualization in the editor.
