Hi @Jawed1, welcome to the discussion boards.

We'll need some more information to be able to help you:

1. What version of Kibana/Elasticsearch are you using?
2. What does the role descriptor look like _exactly_? You can use the [Get Role API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/security-api-get-role.html) to retrieve this.
3. What roles are assigned to your user? You can use the [Authenticate API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/security-api-authenticate.html) to retrieve this.
