Hey there,
I would like to add Kibana roles using the role management API as described in:
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.4/role-management-api-put.html
For a
PUT /api/security/role/my_kibana_role
{
"metadata" : {
"version" : 1
},
"kibana": [
{
"base": [],
"feature": {
"dashboard": ["read"]
},
"spaces": [
"marketing"
]
}
]
}
I only get the following error back:
{
"error": "no handler found for uri [/api/security/role/my_kibana_role?pretty] and method [PUT]"
}
Currently I have the Basic licensed version of XPACK installed.
Is this API included in the Basic License, do I have to enable it through some config?
Any hints are appreciated 
Thanks in advance,
Daniel
Hi @daniellienert,
It seems you're using Kibana own Dev Tools to hit Kibana API - it's not supported. Kibana Dev Tools can only query Elasticsearch APIs, but not the ones exposed by Kibana. For those you need to use curl or similar HTTP client (there is a Copy as cURL button on every such snippet in documentation):
curl -X PUT "localhost:5601/api/security/role/my_kibana_role" -H 'kbn-xsrf: true' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'
{
"metadata" : {
"version" : 1
},
"elasticsearch": {
"cluster" : [ ],
"indices" : [ ]
},
"kibana": [
{
"base": [],
"feature": {
"discover": [
"all"
],
"visualize": [
"all"
],
"dashboard": [
"all"
],
"dev_tools": [
"read"
],
"advancedSettings": [
"read"
],
"indexPatterns": [
"read"
],
"timelion": [
"all"
],
"graph": [
"all"
],
"apm": [
"read"
],
"maps": [
"read"
],
"canvas": [
"read"
],
"infrastructure": [
"all"
],
"logs": [
"all"
],
"uptime": [
"all"
]
},
"spaces": [
"*"
]
}
]
}
