And now I do see some errors in the elasticsearch log:

```auto
[2022-05-04T09:47:11,935][INFO][c.a.o.s.p.PrivilegesEvaluator] [es-master] No index-level perm match for User [name=kibanaserver, backend_roles=[], requestedTenant=null] Resolved [aliases=[*], allIndices=[*], types=[*], originalRequested=[*], remoteIndices=[]] [Action [indices:monitor/settings/get]] [RolesChecked [kibana\
_server]]
[2022-05-04T09:47:11,937][INFO][c.a.o.s.p.PrivilegesEvaluator] [es-master] No permissions for [indices:monitor/settings/get]

```

I am using kibanaserver as the user that kibana uses to connect to elasticsearch.  
My kibana.yml has this relevant line:

```auto
elasticsearch.username: kibanaserver

```
