Is there anywhere to enable and then view usage statistics / logging in Kibana?
I'm wondering how many users are using it, what dashboards they're using, what discover queries, etc.

Only with the [Audit logs](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/xpack-security-audit-logging.html), but this is a paid feature.
If you have a Basic License it will not work.

OK thank you for the pointer. We have premium, so this is included. Looks like I have to configure shipping logs to one of our clusters, so we can "keep" the logs and be able to look through them.
