Hi there,

I'm using 6.7.1 version of the ELK stack with security enabled. I have built a Dashboard that I want to make public, or I want that generic users can see the dashboard without log in. Is there any known solution?

Thanks a lot.

Hello,

You need to pass the auth parameters into the URL so user doesn't have to login.  
This thread should help:

> @Gabriele It should be possible to route to the Elastic Cloud using nginx, there's just an extra header you need to supply, eg: proxy\_set\_header X-Found-Cluster \<cluster-id\>; (note that's the full cluster ID, not just the first 6 digits) There may be other issues, it's not something I've tried; but based on the error you're currently getting, this extra header should at least get you one step closer! Alex

Thanks,  
Bhavya
