i try to make a request to elasticsearch with curl to the kibana interface.curl -u user:password -i https://ip:5601/elasticsearch/_search?pretty -d '{ "aggs": { "allhosts": {"terms": {"field":"host", "size":30 } } } }'
the response of the above is
> HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
> Date: Fri, 20 May 2016 17:40:38 GMT
> Server: Apache/2.4.10 (Debian)
> kbn-name: kibana
> kbn-version: 4.5.0
> content-type: application/json; charset=utf-8
> cache-control: no-cache
> content-length: 79
> Connection: close
> {"statusCode":400,"error":"Bad Request","message":"Missing kbn-version header"}
Elasticsearch version is 2.3.2.
The query works pretty fine if I ssh to the node which run the elasticsearch. Any idea what s possible wrong?

Kibana expects the header 'kbn-version' to be passed on requests, it's used to protect against xsrf attacks.
adding -H kbn-version:4.5.0 should get around that error.
