      Hi Everyone

```

I Have Implemented “search-guard” Elasticsearch

--\>

First i have created a “SearchGuard” Index

\*Then I have Installed and Configured it in logging.yml and Elasticsearch.yml

\*In elasticsearch.yml i have given a user name:admin and password:admin

note:I have given all permissions to admin user in “searchguard” index

\*HERE is my index

curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/searchguard/ac/ac](http://localhost:9200/searchguard/ac/ac)' -d '{

```
"acl": [

{

    "Comment": "By default no filters are executed 

```

and no filters a by-passed. In such a case an exception is thrown and  
access will be denied.",

```
    "filters_bypass": [],

    "filters_execute": []

 },

 {

       "Comment": "For role admin all filters are bypassed (so none will be executed). This means unrestricted access.",

       "roles": [

           "admin"

       ],

       "filters_bypass": [],

       "filters_execute": [“actionrequestfilter.kibanaUser”]

 }

 ]

```

}'

\*Here is my elasticsearch.yml

searchguard.enabled: true

searchguard.rewrite\_get\_as\_search: true

searchguard.allow\_all\_from\_loopback: true

searchguard.config\_index\_name: searchguard

searchguard.key\_path: /var/lib/elasticsearch/searchguard\_node.key

##User settings

searchguard.authentication.settingsdb.user.admin: admin

searchguard.actionrequestfilter.names: ["kibanaUser","admincopy"]

searchguard.actionrequestfilter.kibanaUser.allowed\_actions:["indices:admin/get","indices:data/read/", "monitor"]

Are you using Shield to secure your cluster or something else?

Just want to check did you added the username and password in the kibana settings?

yes.Actually i didt map that user to the elasticsearch.yml. now after mapping the issue is solved.

But kibana is not accepting this default configuration  
"filters\_bypass": [],  
"filters\_execute": []

so when i change the above code getting internal server error
