While creating a new Dashboard in Kibana, we can get below screen.
I wish to hide the button i.e, "Controls"
Hi @Manoilayans,
Can you explain why you want to find the controls button?
It's not something I've done myself. You could try creating a Kibana UI plugin to hide the button. Although this would need to be maintained between versions.
Alternatively you would need to clone, run and change the code yourself. But that is a bigger undertaking to maintain updates to Kibana with upgrades.
Hope that helps!

@carly.richmond Thanks for responding..
The purpose of this request is to limit the user to use Dashboard creation using existing library only. Also, if we allow the user to click "Controls" which allows user to view the index patterns (Data views) and its fields belongs to it.
We are protecting access to the user not to view the list of Index patterns present in the System. So, I wish to hide the "Controls" button in the New Dashboard visualization screen.
Hope this explanation helps you to understand our request.
Hi @carly.richmond , This option is important for us, since we don't have expertise with Kibana plugin. More over, if you could provide me some steps or reference link which guide us to develop Kibana UI plugin.
Because the link you have provided is not helping us with detailed information.
Hi @Manoilayans,
Thanks for getting back in touch. Can you explain what you mean by it doesn't give you detailed information?
I'm not sure it helps, but I did briefly play with building my own example plugin a while ago. That might help you understand the changes needed if you want to commit.
Let me know what you're looking for and I'll do my best to help.
