This script will create an empty dashboard to test a scenario where a customer had updated a dashboard and passed in graph=None to the python client library and then was unable to load the https://app.datadoghq.com/dash/list page. The customer would receive a 500 error code when trying to load this page after updating a dashboard w/ this parameter. This code does not seem to re-create the scenario the customer was experiencing but may be useful to build upon in the future.
