Hi there,
By default APM data is written to `apm*` indices. Can you verify that the user has access to these indices?

Thanks for your reply. It is having access to all the indices.

Can you try running this in Kibana Dev Tools:
```auto
GET apm*/_search?terminate_after=1000
{
"size": 0,
"aggs": {
"events": {
"terms": {
"field": "processor.event",
"size": 10
}
}
}
}
```

Could it be the proxy in the middle that's blocking the response?

Can you try calling ES directly?
```auto
curl -X GET "localhost:9200/apm*/_search?pretty"
```
You probably need to supply credentials
```auto
curl -X GET "localhost:9200/apm*/_search?pretty" -u elastic:changeme
```

Do you have access to the Kibana logs? They might tell us exactly what is causing the unauthorized error.

From the log file I am finding only, whether it 200 or other than 200 not the cause. Can you please suggest anything.

When I am trying index pattern with apm-\* giving me forbidden. But when I am trying with individual index of apm, I am able to create index pattern in Discover.

Your problem is not isolated to APM but seems to be a problem with permissions on general.
I suggest you close this and create a new thread.
