I am using Kibana Ver:5.4.1 with chrome Ver:58.0.3029.96. I am not able to create dashboard - Create dashboard /+ button is not working.  
Is there any plugin that I need to install ?

Looks like you are running into this issue: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/9888](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/9888)

A workaround is mentioned in the issue, and a fix is being worked on for 5.5.

Thanks for quick response 🙂 and I referred the link you shared. For now as a workaround I have deleted .kibana index and now create dashboard is working fine. Hope deleting .kibana index will not affect other operations.
