[FEATURE] Allow users to view details of a PIT in Dashboards #64
Is your feature request related to a problem?
Currently, users are able to create Point in Time (PIT) objects via an API. The objects live on the backend and are not usable in OpenSearch Dashboards. Though, these PIT's can be used by OpenSearch they can not be used by Dashboards or it's features. Additionally, it would be nice to provide users with a GUI to manage PITs in Dashboards so that they can take advantages of the affordances provided by this interface.
This initial work would allow users to view PIT objects (backend and dashboard), and provide a path to other flows like PIT creation, viewing PIT object details, editing PITs, and using them in Discover.
Other context notes
A Point in Time is a freeze of data at a particular point. This data will yield the same search results and paginate the same way as long as the PIT is alive.
PIT objects created on the backend (backend PITs) are not usable in Dashboards until a user makes them available.
What solution would you like
NB: These are design mockups. Some copy is placeholder and not all interactions are polished.
Mockups may differ from the final launched feature.
1. Allow users to view details of a backend PIT that is not available to Dashboards
Users are able to view overview details that show key pieces of information about the PIT
Users have access to a configure tab with restricted actions, they also have restricted PIT actions (add time and delete)

2. Allow users to view details of a PIT created from indices that is available to Dashboards
Users are able to view overview details that show key pieces of information about the PIT
They have access to three tabs fields (shows the list of fields available in the PIT based on data source [index]), a relationships tab that shows what children are related to this PIT, and a configuration tab.
PIT created from indices available to Dashboards Fields Tab
PIT created from indices available to Dashboards Relationships Tab
PIT created from indices available to Dashboards Configurations Tab
3. Allow users to view details of a PIT created from an index pattern that is available to Dashboards.
PITs created from index patterns are always available in Dashboards as long as they are not expired.
