Hi @ssksraja,
what do you mean by you are not able to see the Dashboard?
Are you unable to view the Metrics that are indexed?
Secondly can you share what Version of Metricbeat and OpenSearch have you installed?

yes. iam not able to view the metrics that are indexed in the dashboard.
the version of metrixbeat is metricbeat-oss-7.10.2-linux and opensearch is metricbeat-7.10.2-linux-x86_64. kindly let me know if any details required to resolve this issue.Thanks in advance.

Hi @ssksraja,
what’s in the Log from the OpenSearch Backend?
Can you see a Security Exception that your User isn’t able to view the Metrics?
Have you tried to login as the Admin User and view the Metrics with that User?
If the Logs are corretly index you should be able to view the Logs with the Admin.

No i cant see any security exception in the logs.
