Take a look to this great answer by @stephenb on how to grant anonymous access to Kibana resources:

> @caitlyn.carlisle Ok we have it slight_smile If I understand correctly, What you want to accomplish is enable the ability for a user to anonymous login to view Kibana dashboards etc. That is supported in Elastic Cloud, what is not supported is underlying anonymous access to elasticsearch. That is where the confusion lay. So this is how you do it. Reference [Here](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.12/kibana-authentication.html#anonymous-authentication).. and there is even a little video on it [here](https://www.elastic.co/blog/whats-new-kibana-7-11-0-alerting-generally-available) . Note the docs link to 7.11 so make sure you use the latest. First create the use…

Once you have an anonymous user set up, and given access to it the desired resources, in a dashboard you want to share you need to generate a `Public URL` so it bypasses the login page
