I have created a user using elasticsearch security API. But I am not able to login into kibana using the newly created user. Do I need to make any configuration changes or any other reason?

ELK Stack is hosted on elastic cloud(version:7.9.1)

You have to make sure the user is associated with a role that grants Kibana access.

Logged in as a superuser, if you go to "Management \> Security \> Roles" and edit the role of your user, it should have an enabled Kibana section:
