Hey @kadowning, welcome to the discussion boards!

Can you be a little more specific? Are you trying to simulate anonymous access to a dashboard by automatically presenting a session cookie?

Lots of other users have put a reverse-proxy in front of Kibana to automatically add auth headers (example: [Auto-authenticating to iframe-embedded Kibana dashboard](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/auto-authenticating-to-iframe-embedded-kibana-dashboard/46091/4))

We also have an open issue to better support these types of use cases here: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/18331](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/18331)
