Hi, i'm new to Elastic and I would like to create a new user in elasticsearch from Kibana. I want this user to be able to create any index regardless of the index pattern.

The only way i have found is to create index patterns and assign them to a role to assing to the user, however that limits the user to those index patterns.

I could assing superuser role, but i think it would be more than i need.

Any suggestion?
