I have setup Elasticsearch and Kibana 7.0.1 version. May I know how to hide or remove the Management menu from Kibana UI?

As mentioned in this other thread, you can leverage the dashboard-only mode if you want to hide everything but dashboards.

Otherwise, since Kibana 7.2, you can go to Management > Spaces and decide to hide some Management features, such as:

  • Advanced settings
  • Index patterns management
  • Saved objects management

Also worth noting that there's an open issue to actually hide features based on cluster privileges.

The configuration of Kibana UI is received in the response to the /{SPACE_URI}?api/core/capabilities request. You can manipulate this response by putting Kibana behind a proxy (mitmproxy is a quick/clean choice) and within the response set body['navLinks']['kibana:management'] = False. Then you won't see that management button on the sidebar anymore.

After searching forever in Kibana 7.7.1, finally found that you can define what roles to include in the "Dashboard Only" mode under Advanced Settings. Here you can define a second role to have dashboard only, AND NOT access to all spaces as the kibana_dashboard_only_user does.

Advanced Settings --> Dashboard

You can hide the management menu by clicking the Collapse button at the bottom of the menu.

I'm not so sure about removing it. Probably there is a more contextually appropriate solution for your concern, such as embedding a dashboard onto your app, or restricting management permissions to a certain group of users.

dashboard-only-mode may be of interest to you, and you can move up to minor version 7.1.0 in order to make this a free feature.
