Hello Team

I've embedded the kibana dashboards in web app. But, now users are able to apply all the filters. Is there any way to restrict them? like disabling the filters or making few fields read-only?

Hi,

unfortunately there is currently no way for that. Please feel free to raise a feature request for that on GitHub!

Cheers,  
Tim
