I created a dashboard in which I inserted a Map in it. To restrict user from seeing data I saved Map with a filter such that Time is between now to 3 months before. But when I add this Map in my dashboard the filter is not working on Map. What can be reason for this?
The Kibana time filter you set up in a Map is overridden by the Dashboard. If you need to set up a different filter for a layer you can do that in the layer settings.
Example using the Kibana Flights demo dataset
The map has a 1 year filter but the layer is getting the last 15 hours. That second filter will be in the map settings and a dashboard cannot override it, if I'm correct.
@Nathan_Reese will correct me if I'm wrong 
When maps are added to dashboards, the map uses the dashboard query and time context instead of the query and time context saved with the map.
If you would like a custom time range for your map panel that is different then the time range for the entire dashboard, then you can add a customized time range per dashboard panel.
