Hi Team, i am using Kibana/elasticsearch 7.9 version. I have couple of questions.

Is there anyway that i can hide navbar for a specific user based on the role?

Actually i want to restrict user to play around with kibana dashboard if he is coming from Nginx proxy server.

if there is any clarification required i would definitely share.  
Thank you.

Hey @Muhammad_Umair_Baig,

Kibana currently doesn't offer the ability to hide the "edit user" menu item. You can use roles to hide the Dashboard feature entirely, but you can't hide just the screen you're referencing while still letting them view/edit dashboards specifically.
