Multitenancy cannot find specific .kibana index

Security
#1

Hi,

I am trying to set up multi-tenant in my cluster. I am creating a new tenant : “test_tenant”. Then put it in a role tenant pattern.

According to the documentation, security plugin creates separate indices for each tenant :

.kibana_<hash>_<tenant_name>

But i am not able to find my .kibana index for my “test_tenant” with my query GET .kibana*

Is it normal ? How to find my test_tenant .kibana index to be able to modify it and add saved object in this tenant ? Users with this tenant have a blank page.

Thank you,
Julien

Have you tried GET /_cat/indices/.kibana*?v

Nothing, just get my .kibana_1, kibana_2 etc for each nodes

Have you had a user log in and use that tenant yet?

#5

To note - I was just doing some testing and see that the index for the tenant was only created once I gave a user permission to the tenant, had the user logout, log back in, and switch to the tenant.

#6

I do not give directly user permission to the tenant, but within a role. Then in the Roles Mapping i put backend roles, then users having this backend role get the rights.

At the end, in Account menu, my user see test_tenant in Tenants list, but he is not able to find the index …
