If you look at the two roles you assigned you can see what access they have when it comes to `indicies` and `priviledges`. The `kibana_admin` role doesn't have any and the `kibana_system` role is restricted to system indicies with `*` or the remaining ones you have created you can only `monitor` and `view_index_metadata`. So short answer is you should [create a new role](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/get-started-roles.html) with the specific access you want for that user and assign it to them. **Kibana Admin** ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/c/0/c0c802c84aedede33b17687b6d48ae8b7916084d.png) **Kibana System** ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/6/c/6cf708f5c456652ced385a3dead02ff5a1abf107.png) ---

Click the `Add Kibana Privilege` on the bottom of the role page for those options. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/4/8/48fbcd4e49dcca91f38a62d7819335f20aaaea9e.png) ---
