Hi,

I am using Kibana 8.6.1 and I am creating some users. I am giving temporary passwords to them but actually I need that Kibana should ask to change passwords on their first login. Can I do that? If I can, should I do that in elastic.yml or kibana.yml?

Thanks in advance..

There's no way to currently do that in the stack sorry.
