I am wondering is it possible to track user activity of how they are using kibana, not just the security features like logging and logoff, but more of which dashboard they are accessing and more importantly, the filter and search terms.

Eg I want to know if user go to dashboard A, searched text "abc", then go to dashboard B, and changed time range to something else.

I am not interested if user generate such filter based on any visualization, eg pie chart or bar chart or typing using the "Add Filter" feature

We do offer [audit logging features](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/xpack-security-audit-logging.html) in the Platinum license level and higher, but there is some ongoing work to offer exactly what you are asking for in an easier-to-consume way. You can follow progress here: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/81130](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/81130)
