Hello, I cant figure out why I cant monitor logstash pipelines as user Kibana. Very new to x-pack. X-Pack is installed with default config. When I try to view logstash pipelines in Kibana monitoring, I see: _ **You do not have permission to manage Logstash pipelines** _ _ **Please contact your administrator.** _ I cant figure out what I need to change. I know it is around roles. Anyone encounter this and figure it out? Thanks, -Mike M ---

Hey Mike, you're right, you just need to add the `logstash_admin` role to your user. See [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/current/built-in-roles.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/x-pack/current/built-in-roles.html) for more info about roles. Thanks, CJ ---
