Hi guys! I have a little doubt referent to Kibana.  
I have create a user for only view the dashboards, so when i try import the dashboard on your account, i can't view the informations in there contains.  
The dashboards just open empty. I just can get view these informations when i set to your user, the permission 'superuser'. But i don't wanna this account have this permission.

Someone can help me please?  
Thank!
