Kibana - can't see data view in management panel

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

I have a self-hosted Kibana, connected to a self-hosted Elasticsearch. Even when I login with the "elastic" user which is a super user, I don't see the "data view" in the "management" page. There's also no "Saved Objects" there.

Also, when I create a new "data view" on the "Discover -> Request Logs" page, it has a "temporary" label next to it. Even though I click the "save" button. And when I log out, it disappears.

My Kibana's settings are very basic:

server.host: "0.0.0.0"
server.port: 5608
elasticsearch.hosts: "...."
server.name: "..."
server.publicBaseUrl: "http://localhost:5608"
server.shutdownTimeout: "5s"
monitoring.ui.container.elasticsearch.enabled: true

elasticsearch.username: "kibana_system"
# The password is set in Kibana's keystore.

# Anonymouse access config
xpack.security.authc.providers:
  basic.basic1:
    order: 0
  anonymous.anonymous1:
    order: 1
    credentials:
    username: "kibana-anonymous"
    # The password is set in Kibana's keystore

Hi @aidin and welcome to the community!

First idea is to check spaces configuration and privileges in them. It might be that the created data views are saved in another space (where you have permission) than the one on your screenshot (where you don't).

Thanks for the quick reply @jughosta !

I only have one space. I double-checked that just now.

The main issue here is, I don't see the "Data Views" menu in the "Stack Management" page. As you see in the screenshot. Even though I login with the built-in "elastic" user that is a "super user".
