Access Kibana Dashboard without login

Elastic Stack Kibana
#1

Seems to be a well discussed topic, but I might run into some difficulties.

I'm using elastic-stack in Version: 6.2.4, x-pack installed.

I already do the "anonymous"-user in elasticstack.yml - Where I can change the access rights in kibana.

All I want is to show some dashboards on my fancy digital signage device (tv on the wall to show people how great we are).

Reverse Proxy is not an option neigter, because all I've got is a endless loading from Kibana.

So, how I can realize an automatic login?

Anonymous access in Kibana is still under development, you can track progress in https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/35613

Meantime, if you want to keep security enabled, you will have to use the reverse proxy in front of Kibana that sets the basic auth header. There is an example of nginx.config with the correct setup Auto-authenticating to iframe-embedded Kibana dashboard
