Hi All, I am looking for some help in setting up few user accounts in kibana 6.7.2. I have explained my requirement below. There are 3 spaces A, B, C & 2 users x, y. 1. How can we assign kibana dashboard only user role to user x for the space A. User X should not be able to view other spaces B & C. 2. There are few pre-existing visualizations & dashboards in space A. user x is having read-only access to these object. But user x should be able to create new visualizations & dashboards. However he should not be able to edit/delete any of the pre-existing objects which are not created by him. What should be the role assignment for user x for this case? Basically, on a space, user x should have update access only to the objects created by him, but can't alter the visualizations created by any other user. ---

Hello, You can do part of this using a combination of roles/ and spaces. ![42%20PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/c/a/caa6bf3f2b079452f69c7650a3594d75525a50a5.png) If you create a role - give it space a privileges only - user won't be able to see saved objects in space b & c. Unfortunately you won't be able to do this. If user x can create new vizs and dashboards on the same index pattern - then she will definitely have access to the data to be able to read saved objects created on it. This will work only if the user x won't have field privileges on the existing saved objects. > [@biji\_padhy](#): > > There are few pre-existing visualizations & dashboards in space A. user x is having read-only access to these object. > But user x should be able to create new visualizations & dashboards.

Hi, I have a similar scenario as described by biji\_padhy. I have ELK version 6.7.2 installed and am looking for ways to implement role management in it. As shown in the picture above, 'Management / Users / Create', I can't see the Users options in my version. Is that a plugin installed separately or am I missing something here? Side note : \*\* I am new to ELK and Kibana. ---

Hi, So you need to enable security plugin. Please follow this documentation: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elastic-stack-overview/6.7/get-started-enable-security.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elastic-stack-overview/6.7/get-started-enable-security.html) Thanks, Bhavya ---
