Watcher UI Security

IMPORTANT: This documentation is no longer updated. Refer to Elastic's version policy and the latest documentation.

The Watcher UI requires a user with kibana_user and the user must have either watcher_admin or watcher_user.

watcher_admin can perform all watcher-related actions, such as creating a new watch or editing an existing one.

watcher_user can view all existing watches, but is not able to create or edit watches.

Learn more about creating users and roles in Security.
