You can only bypass the login page when there is a Single Sign On authentication method enabled, but not with anything passed through a URL

More details here:

Hello @fenixon,

Depending on your requirements, there may be two other options for you to bypass the login page:

1. Allow [anonymous logins](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/8.8/kibana-authentication.html#anonymous-authentication)
2. Provide a reverse proxy (e.g. Apache) and call the proxy endpoint instead of directly calling Kibana. The benefit here is that the proxy can add the Basic Authentication header which prevents the login page.

Best regards  
Wolfram
