Index Name : sampleindex@timestamp  
Everyday new index is being created with current date

I made one user in kibana and assigned a particular role to the user:  
I already added sampleindex\* with privilages:

```auto
 monitor, index, read, view_index_metadata

```

to the role assigned to my user but still my user is not able to execute:

```auto
GET /_cat/indices/sampleindex*

```

my question is, how to give my user access to execute this particular query.

Have you set cluster privileges too?

cat indices API Document says user need also `monitor` or `manage` cluster priviledge and `monitor` or `manage` index priviledge.

Thanks @Tomo_M, Giving "monitor" cluster privilage to the user worked...
