@haythem you can create a new role specifying the spaces you wanna make visible to that role. You can even create new spaces, with some hidden features, and also associate them to that new role.

@haythem I see! Ok so you can do this:

[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/xpack-dashboard-only-mode.html#advanced-dashboard-mode-configuration](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/xpack-dashboard-only-mode.html#advanced-dashboard-mode-configuration)

Just create a new role with access only to your desired spaces and than declare this role as dashboard only.
