Description

Kibana version: 8.4.0

Add Data button should be disabled for users with limited privileges ( kibana_user) for Sample Data- flight data and web logs.

Created a user with a kibana_user role( very limited and deprecated) . Logged in with this user, and navigated to Home > Add Data. Saw that one of the data set- ( eCommerce Data set is disabled ) while other two are enabled ( flight data and web logs)

  • Expected behavior : All the data sets should be disabled when the user with limited privileges tries to add them

Research direction
Examine the Home page component (likely in x pack/plugins/home) to identify where sample data sets are enabled/disabled. The eCommerce set is already disabled for non privileged users, so find the logic that disables it and apply the same condition to flight data and web logs. Check the AddData pane and sample data service for role based access checks.
