Hello,  
I have this scenario: I installed serachguard into kibana 6.2.2 and I create two users :

- user1 have access only to indexes that has names logstash-mobile-\*
- user2 have access only to indexes logstash-test-\*  
And I have a dashboard and it's visualizations created with logstash-\*  
If I login to user1 and import dashboard+visualization and affect them to logstash-mobile\* so I can see all visualizations. BUT if I go now to user2 and import the same dashboard + viz (the initial one created with logstash-_) I found that all visualizations changed to logstash-mobile_ so I can't acces to any visualizations bcs user2 is limited to logstash-test-\*  
I need to find a solution that each user see the same visualizations(standard viz initially created with logstash-\*) but with it's indexes  
please help !

Hi @chrigui94,

We don't offer support for Search Guard, but it sounds like you are looking to implement a multi-tenant solution for Kibana. We are actively working on a feature that will hopefully make setups like this very easy in the future. You can track our progress here: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/18948](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/18948)

Larry,  
This capability would be awesome, we're looking forward to it.
