Description

It looks like this user is asking if there is a way to clone a cell from one dashboard to another. Can we make a note regarding this?

We should also include a link to Import/export dashboard page.

Something like:
Dashboards and cells can be exported as JSON files and imported for use with other dashboards. For more information see [Import and export Chronograf dashboards] (https://docs.influxdata.com/chronograf/v1.9/administration/import-export-dashboards/)

New user feedback!
