Hi,

I have followed the guide on this site for security integration. Now When I restarted Kibana I'm entering kibana\_system as the username and the password I created but after the login I get a message stating You do not have permission to access requested page.

This is the guide

> **[Set up minimal security for Elasticsearch | Elasticsearch Guide \[7.12\] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.12/security-minimal-setup.html)**

How can I proceed from here?

The [kibana\_system](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/built-in-users.html) is a built-in role used to connect to Elasticsearch. It's not intended as a login to Kibana.

I would login to Kibana using the `elastic` account and then create a new user and then use that one.

Btw, the doc page you linked does say

> This account is not meant for individual users and does not have permission to log in to Kibana from a browser. Instead, you’ll log in to Kibana as the `elastic` superuser.

Right after

> You’ll configure Kibana to use the built-in `kibana_system` user and the password that you created earlier. Kibana performs some background tasks that require use of the `kibana_system` user.
