**Versions** (relevant - OpenSearch/Dashboard/Server OS/Browser):

v2.13.0, OpenSearch Dashboard, built on AWS

**Describe the issue** :  
The account already has all\_access and security manager roles but could not create new data source connection via dashboard. I read [https://forum.opensearch.org/t/no-option-to-create-new-data-source-in-dashboards-ui/19748](https://forum.opensearch.org/t/no-option-to-create-new-data-source-in-dashboards-ui/19748) and checked that data source plugin is enabled. Does the account need more permission, like manually setting cluster:admin/opensearch/ql/datasources/create?  
Thank you!

**Configuration** :  
all\_access and security manager roles

**Relevant Logs or Screenshots** :

Hi @TonyHuang,

What do you see in the logs? it usually specifies what permissions are missing is any.

Could you run the below (with the user) and share the output:

CURL

```auto
curl --insecure -u <user>:<password> -XGET https://<OS_node>:9200/_plugins/_security/authinfo?pretty

```

or UI dev tools

```auto

GET _plugins/_security/authinfo

```

best,  
mj

Hi @Mantas ,  
this is the output of running the script on UI dev tools. Is it because the project is built on AWS (using AWS openSearch Service) that I could not create a data source connection but only using API to upload data?  
I aim to add data from a mysql db, and create a dashboard.
