I saw a case recently where this error was hiding a permission issue. Do people on this thread have Kibana security enabled? If yes, please double check that the Beats user has the required privileges (esp. `kibana_user`). ---

Fyi, I've been able to reproduce it and have opened a bug report at [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/40714](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/40714) ---

Where is the permission lists for kibana user and beat user to check? ---

@golaso `kibana_user` is the only role your Kibana user should need to import dashboards. The `filebeat setup` command also sets up things in Elasticsearch and so needs `beats_system` and `ingest_admin` as well I think. Not all of these privileges are necessary after running setup. ---

> [@cwurm](#): > > The `filebeat setup` command also sets up things in Elasticsearch and so needs `beats_system` and `ingest_admin` as well I think. Not all of these privileges are necessary after running setup. Well, now i have this error with `beats_system` and `ingest_admin` permissions for beat user: `action [indices:admin/create] is unauthorized for user [metricbeat_internal]` What index (or index pattern) requires this permission? I already have `create` , `create_index` , `write` , `manage_ilm` permissions on `metricbeat-*` index pattern. ---

@golaso Sorry, my bad. I've done some testing, here's what privileges should be required. You can create roles that have these and then assign them to the user(s). **Setup** 1. monitor 2. manage\_ilm 3. manage\_index\_templates 4. manage (on `metricbeat-*`) 5. manage\_pipeline 6. + kibana\_user (separate role to load Kibana dashboards) **Run** 1. monitor 2. read\_ilm 3. manage\_index\_templates 4. view\_index\_metadata (on `metricbeat-*`) 5. index (on `metricbeat-*`) ---
