I am running Kibana 7.7.1 on windows system. I tried to achieve this using xpack security. Kibana license is Basic(free) version.

My ES config:

  • xpack.security.enabled: true
  • discovery.type: single-node

I used following command to generate passwords: bin/elasticsearch-setup-passwords auto

In kibana configuration added following lines:

  • elasticsearch.username: "kibana"
  • elasticsearch.password: "***"

I logged in to Kibana with the credentials (as received from the command above):

  • Username:"elastic"
  • Password:"***"

In Management->security->roles I created new role with privilege read. Then in Management->security->users created a new user with the role just created. Logged out and tried to login with the new user and it showed this message {"statusCode":403, "error":"Forbidden", "message":"Forbidden"}

I am new to Kibana. I followed a tutorial but it did not work for me. Is there a way we can achieve this?

You also need to grant Kibana access through the 'spaces', if you want, you also can give access only to the dashboard module in this config too.

Kibana spaces doc: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/xpack-spaces.html
