Hello ! ElasticSearch slow log search and tasks management use the X-Opaque-ID header to identify tasks running in the cluster.
Is there a way to set the X-Opaque-ID header with the current Kibana user name ?
Thank you in advance, have a nice day.

Unfortunately there isn't a way to do it yet. We have an [issue](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/16493), and a larger project surrounding audit logging [here](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/52125). Apologies, offhand I can't think of any Kibana-centric workarounds.
