# TL;DR

Member of `SGS_KIBANA_USER` and `SGS_READALL` unable to view **Logs** under **Observability** section in Kibana.

# Implementation Details

- **Elasticsearch/Kibana:** 7.8.0
- **Search Guard (ES & Kibana):** 43.0.0

# Issues

I have a user with `SGS_KIBANA_USER` and `SGS_READALL` roles who is attempting to view streaming logs under the **Observability-\>Logs** in Kibana. She has access to the indices she’s attempting to view and can view them in **Discover** , but cannot view **any** logs in the streaming view.

I can view the streaming logs using the same configuration she’s attempting to use. But then, I have `SGS_ALL_ACCESS`, so I would expect to be able to.

I assume this is a permissions issue. What permissions do I need to grant in order to allow her to use this feature, short of granting admin permissions?

If there is a permission issue, you should see the related error in the Elasticsearch log. Do you see any errors there?

I haven’t been able to connect with the user yet and will post logs as soon as I’m able to.
