Hi,

I'm trying use GET /cars in the console but I'm facing errors.

Please help me solve this error.  
{  
"error": {  
"root\_cause": [  
{  
"type": "security\_exception",  
"reason": "action [indices:admin/get] is unauthorized for user [kibana]"  
}  
],  
"type": "security\_exception",  
"reason": "action [indices:admin/get] is unauthorized for user [kibana]"  
},  
"status": 403  
}

Thanks,  
Krishna

Hi Krishna,

What version of the Elastic stack are you running?  
Are you running x-pack?  
Are there any firewalls or proxies between your Kibana server and your Elasticsearch cluster?  
What do you get when you run `GET /_cat/indices?v` in console?

Nathan
