As of now I am not using any authentication for kibana,just wanted to hit the Kibana and get an success reponse. I am planning to use the authentication once kibana is able to handle the ajax calls.

Also using curl POST command I am able to achieve the success call.

> **Since [http://localhost:5601](http://localhost:5601) does not support POST requests, you are getting a 404 back.**

I have seen some discussions \> [Authenticating to iframe-embedded Kibana dashboard - #7 by weltenwort](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/authenticating-to-iframe-embedded-kibana-dashboard/71129/7) on the POST commands. Can you please elaborate why Kibana does not work on POST calls and is there some other calls which can be passed to Kibana like 'GET/PUT'
