How to create different kibana users

Saishantan_goli · May 24, 2021, 8:32am

Hi,

I want to know the steps to create multiple Kibana users and roles according to my use case.

Ex:
case 1: admin user - who can delete create remove anything from the Kibana
case 2: user1 - who can query logs and analyze them(only read access)

And so on.

Hi, @Mikhail_Shustov @warkolm,
I cannot find Settings, Roles, Users (as mentioned in Securing access to Kibana | Kibana Guide [7.12] | Elastic) in stack management.
Do I need to add any param in the kibana.yml file?

@Saishantan_goli What Kibana distribution do you use? Do you have Security plugin disabled?

If Distribution is version then it is 7.12. How and where to check if the security plugin is enabled or disabled?

It should be enabled unless you have xpack.security.enabled: false in kibana.yml

I don't find the above mentioned key in the Kibana.yml.

Do i need to add manually?
