Hi, I think you can change the home page with `Default route` in advanced kibana settings from `/app/kibana` to something else. ---

Funny enough I encountered this exact error today! 🙂 long story short you have to create index pattern, dashboard and ... per space! if you don't want to do it. just use the default space and restrict it in your role. and then assign that role to your new user. something like this: ![Screenshot from 2020-09-16 10-39-54](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/0/e0db946360ddb59647f181e50ee68de34c423fc6.png) and the new user can only see those features: ![Screenshot from 2020-09-16 14-04-43](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/0/f/0f34ede5ed4e3e42a90f1b7c0dce92e8c97ff6a7.png) side note: if you want to use SIEM and ML then let me know because you have to configure few other things. ---

Your welcome. > [@pankaj0172](#): > > Actually I want user can only see Dashboard not logs, Metric, Discover, Machine Learning, Visualize etc.. just change the priviliage to `None` for all of them except `dashboard`. ---
