Hi @zqc0512,

There is only [`server.defaultRoute` setting](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/6.2/settings.html) that sets default URL for the **entire** Kibana instance. Unfortunately there is no built-in way to set different default URLs for different users/roles within the same Kibana instance.

Let me know if I can help with anything else.

Best,  
Oleg

Not sure what you mean here, but if you are asking about adding new functionality you can always file a `Feature request` in Kibana repository and Team will carefully assess whether it's something that makes sense or not:

> **[Build software better, together](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new/choose)**
>
> GitHub is where people build software. More than 100 million people use GitHub to discover, fork, and contribute to over 420 million projects.

You can also try to write your own plugin that will do a redirect to whatever URL you need based on the user's roles, you may want to take a look at [this plugin](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/tree/master/x-pack/plugins/dashboard_mode) that does something similar.

Best,  
Oleg
