I have few index in my cluster  
index\_2019-01-01  
index\_2019-01-02  
index\_2019-01-03  
index\_2019-01-04  
index\_2019-01-05  
index\_2019-01-06

There are two user USER1 & USER2  
USER1 has full right to this index pattern.  
I want to provide access rigths to USER2 for first three index

How can I achieve this in ELK

Elastic version 7.2
