Hi,

We are using custom role (Read Only) to access **Uptime** from Observability section. But we are getting "contact your administrator" screen. Below is the scrennshot for your reference.

Also attaching index privileges we are using for the custom role. Please suggest what privileges need to be added ?

Hi, you need to add `heartbeat-*` and `synthetics-*` patterns for the Uptime and Synthetics applications with the privileges you already set.

On my test, I have this role definition:

And with that, a user with that role can get into the Kibana Observability application and check the Uptime and Synthetics.
