how to restrict users group to access particular index only

saifuddin9122

Hello

we have two indexes (A,B) and i have 3 different groups.
1. admin
2. US-East-users
3. US-central-users

our goal is admin group members should have access to both indexes and US-East-users should have access to index A only US-central-users should have access to index B.

even the user in any group other than admin searches for index=* , they should get data from only the index to which they have access.

how should i implement this? can any one help me in doing so?

Thanks in Advance.

hello saifuddin9122,
navigate to settings -> access controls -> roles -> US-East-users -> scroll all the way down -> add index A to the bottom box (restricted indexes) -> click save -> repeat for other roles
