hi @Nada_I,

do you know who send you the link to the dashboard? When Kibana is secured with xpack.security, the Kibana administrator needs to setup the appropriate roles and permissions for users.

So for that you would need to check with thecreator of the Dashboard, or whoever is administering Kibana in your organization.
