hello,

I use an embed dashboard to share dashboard to our application users. so when embed screen loading there is kibana basic authentication menu prompt. but I don't need to show another screen to users to login because they are log in already in our application. can I do Kibana authentication part in my backend (on free version). I'm using Kibana latest version. I saw some post about reverse proxy. is that method still works for latest versions or are there any other methods.

Would [Kibana anonymous access](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/kibana-authentication.html#anonymous-authentication) work for you or different users should have different permissions in Kibana? If the latter, yes the reverse proxy would be the only solution for a free version of the Elastic Stack (in paid tier you can enable SSO). It has a number of limitations, but it should work for most of the use cases.
