I have 7.6 version running with 4 instances (ELK + Heartbeat) with basic license and xpack enabled. The standard users have newly generated passwords. As an user which is assigned to the orginal super\_admin role I can use the filedatavisualizer. If I create a role with same permissions as the system super\_user role (all \* \* all) and kibana - I run into a 404 with the link: [http://elasticserver:5601/app/ml#/filedatavisualizer](http://elasticserver:5601/app/ml#/filedatavisualizer). Error message is: {"statusCode":404,"error":"Not Found","message":"Not Found"}. How can i restrict access and in the same way grant access to the Filedatavisualizer?

Any hint where to start looking?

I believe you need to add the `machine_learning_user` or `machine_learning_admin ` role to the user.

If you add a role through the UI, and click on Add space privileges under the Kibana heading you will have feature-level controls as well as specific information for stack monitoring and machine learning.

Also worth mentioning, Machine Learning is not available as part of basic so I assume you have started a trial.

Thanks, the machine\_learning\_user does the trick. In addition you need to switch on ML fur the user space. It even works for the basic license.
