thanks for your response

The request looks fine, but it could be the tool has a hard time parsing it. Could you try by spacing it out over a few lines:

POST my-index/_doc
{
"firstname":"alain",
"lastname":"muster",
"date_of_birth": "18.05.1985"
}

yes @majagrubic i tried but same error :frowning:

Here are some of the things I'd suggest to try:

  1. Try with a different index and see if it still fails
  2. Check your index privileges
  3. Try executing a cURL request against your Elasticsearch cluster directly

  1. Try executing a cURL request against your Elasticsearch cluster directly

POST and PUT working with curl directly to the cluster.

GET is working but not PUT and POST on the DevTools,

i don't know why PUT and POST is not working while GET is working.

Could you check the request in the network tab of your browser? It will look something like proxy?path=my-index-00001%2F_doc%2F&method=POST

Does it have request payload correctly set?

@majagrubic how to check, which tools did you use ?

8

This is just Devtools in your browser, in Chrome it's View > Developer Tools and then the Network tab.

yes @majagrubic but i don't see any information

Request payload is what you need, it's right there in the Payload tab.

same error

Sorry if I wasn't clear, I am interested in this bit:

From what I can see, it looks like the request is correctly being sent. Can you expand this section and post it here? Also, can you confirm that you've executed a cURL request from your OS terminal against Elasticsearch cluster and that that executed correctly?

curl -X POST "localhost:9200/my-index-000001/_doc/?pretty" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'
{
  "@timestamp": "2099-11-15T13:12:00",
  "message": "GET /search HTTP/1.1 200 1070000",
  "user": {
    "id": "kimchy"
  }
}
'
13

Also, what is that security exception?

So the request is correctly being sent, which means the error is a bit misleading, as the request body is in fact in the request. I think this could be:

  1. a privileges issue
  2. Kibana having problems communicating with ES
  3. ES acting out for some reason

We can narrow this down if you execute a cURL request and can confirm that it's working.

16

as you see curl with PUT is working @majagrubic

This is really weird. Given everything you've posted, I don't think that it's an issue with Kibana DevTools, nor an issue with the Elasticsearch cluster. Could be a permissions issue or some hidden whitespace.

18

i searched to update kibana and Elasticsearch but that not working.

19

Hi, I have a few questions:

  1. What version of Kibana are you on?
  2. Is there a reverse proxy in front of Elasticsearch or Kibana?
  3. Have you tried adding a leading slash to the path?
20

Hi,

i run kibana 7.15.2 and Elasticsearch 7.15.2, i don't use proxy, what you mean add leading slash ?
