Hi,

Is there any way found to disable/hide Management section in kibana console for non-admin users?

We are running Elasticsearch & kibana with version 5.4.1 and would like to display "Management" section only for admin users.

I could see the solutions that we can do that by removing the plugin section in the below file /usr/share/kibana/src/core\_plugins/kibana/index.js. But we are looking for a way to provide in kibana.yml instead of changing the code.

Appreciate your help.

Hi @sshingarapu,

Unfortunately, we do not currently support a way to disable a page, like Management. You can disable plugins using kibana.yml, but Management is part of the entire Kibana plugin.

Thanks,  
Chris
