Hi @RabBit_BR

When asking for help, it is more effective if you describe the steps you've taken and where you got stuck.
Without that we're just guessing and will only be able to give you generic advice.

Hi @TimV
My bad, here what i tried was using some of the curl command which refernced from elastic document to create the user where i failed.
Similar approach i tried for Cassandra, the approach was creating the read-only user when i am trying to deploy cassandra using helm chart. So I am trying to find similar approach for Elastic also, to create a read-only user via values.yaml . I just need some refernces, whether this is achieveable .

Here, we are deploying elastic as a container in rke2 clsuter.

Sorry for inconvience, if my question was not clear.

Please do help me out.
