Hi, We have users that we want to be able to access the information about the configured ingest pipelines in Kibana. I gave them the cluster privilege read\_pipeline, but that does not help with seeing the pipelines in Kibana in the Stack Management section. I fail to see which Kibana privilege I have to grant them. Is it even possible? I read about a feature request about similar topic regarding read access to index templates, so I'm wondering.  
Thanks in advance.

Hi @cekay Welcome to the community.

Unfortunately there is not enough granular level access to the Stack Management items to just Show Ingest Pipelines.

If you do not want to grant wider access to Stack Management you users could still see ingest pipelines (with the correct access) in

Kibana -\> Dev Tools

```auto
# List all ingest pipelines
GET _ingest/pipeline/

#View Specific pipeline
GET _ingest/pipeline/mypipeline

```

Thank you very much. Access with the Dev Tools is working for the users.

And this functionality seems to be tracked in [Ability to view all of Stack Management as read-only · Issue #147220 · elastic/kibana · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/147220).
