Permission issue with .plugins-ml-config

Versions (relevant - OpenSearch/Dashboard/Server OS/Browser): 12.2

Describe the issue:
I have OpenSearch version 12.2 installed, and I want to use the assistant feature. I already have my OpenAI model loaded, along with its respective connector and model group. I’ve also activated assistant.chat.enabled as required by this guide (dashboards-assistant/GETTING_STARTED_GUIDE.md at main · opensearch-project/dashboards-assistant · GitHub). The problem arises when I run this command:

PUT .plugins-ml-config/_doc/os_chat
{
  "type":"os_chat_root_agent",
  "configuration":{
    "agent_id": "xhIx9o0BgH1_aAmC2aFz"
  }
}

I get this error message:
{
“error”: {
“root_cause”: [
{
“type”: “security_exception”,
“reason”: “no permissions for and User [name=admin, backend_roles=[admin], requestedTenant=user]”
}
],
“type”: “security_exception”,
“reason”: “no permissions for and User [name=admin, backend_roles=[admin], requestedTenant=user]”
},
“status”: 403
}

When I check the service logs, it shows me this specifically:

[2024-02-29T18:58:43,294][WARN ][o.o.s.p.SecurityIndexAccessEvaluator] [qxopensearch0-node1] indices:data/write/index for ‘.plugins-ml-config’ index is not allowed for a regular user

I’ve tried everything; I’ve created all the roles and permissions, but I can’t seem to execute the command to activate the agent

Pablo, thank you very much for the help. I’ve really tried everything

  • Let me share the output of the first command with you.

[root@qxopensearch0 config]# curl --insecure --cert kirk.pem --key kirk-key.pem -H “Content-Type: application/json” -XPUT https://localhost:9200/.plugins-ml-config/_search?pretty -d ’

> > {

> >   }
> > }
> > '
{
"error" : "Incorrect HTTP method for uri [/.plugins-ml-config/_search?pretty] and method [PUT], allowed: [GET, POST]",
  "status" : 405
}

I also tried with the POST method, but it throws a syntax error. Anyway, that method doesn’t work for registering the agent

Here is the output of the second command.

[root@qxopensearch0 config]# curl --insecure --cert kirk.pem --key kirk-key.pem https://localhost:9200/.plugins-ml-config/_search?pretty

{
  "took" : 2,
  "timed_out" : false,
  "_shards" : {
    "total" : 1,
    "successful" : 1,
    "skipped" : 0,
    "failed" : 0
  },
  "hits" : {
    "total" : {
      "value" : 1,
      "relation" : "eq"
    },
    "max_score" : 1.0,
    "hits" : [
      {
        "_index" : ".plugins-Preformatted textml-config",
        "_id" : "master_key",
        "_score" : 1.0,
        "_source" : {
          "master_key" : "qvK3QM1S811MKGF+K6SeB2AqGJrFAMabbw95re+Tq3E=",
          "create_time" : 1709061173749
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

@only19 Sorry I’ve sent you incorrect URL.

Try with https://localhost:9200/.plugins-ml-config/_doc/os_chat instead.

I’ve just updated my last post.

Why should we do that? Is there any explanation? Even logged as ADMIN, going via UI inside the Dev Tools gives the same error.
