Stack Monitoring Access Denied

[sourcreamnormanbates (Aaron)]

When I try to view Stack Monitoring, I receive an error message.
I get the same message with the default elastic admin user as well as my provisioned unique admin user account I use.
I only have one cluster, so I'm not sure why I'm getting this.

Access Denied

You are not authorized to access Monitoring. To use Monitoring, you need the privileges granted by both the kibana_admin and monitoring_user roles.

If you are attempting to access a dedicated monitoring cluster, this might be because you are logged in as a user that is not configured on the monitoring cluster.

Since Cross Cluster Search is enabled (monitoring.ui.ccs.enabled is set to true), make sure your cluster has the remote_cluster_client role on at least one node

Hi, @sourcreamnormanbates! Thanks for reaching out.

I found a couple of similar forum posts that might be worth checking out:

• Access denied while opening Stack-Monitoring on Kibana 7.8
• Kibana upgrade to 8.x , can't enter monitoring - #4 by matschaffer

Thanks for the suggestions. The solution that worked for me was to add this setting to the kibana.yml.

monitoring.ui.ccs.enabled: false

Thanks! Glad you found a solution!
