Hi experts,

We use Search service which provides a pass-through service for clients, as if they are interacting with Elasticsearch Rest end point diractly.

Now we have set up:  
search service server:`http://<search-service_host>: 8080`  
ES server: `http://<ES_host>:9200`

We get the same response from them like:

name: \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*  
cluster\_name: elasticsearch  
cluster\_uuid:\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*  
version number: 6.1.2  
build\_hash: 5b1fea5  
build\_date: 2018-01-10T02:35:59.208Z  
build\_snapshot: false  
lucene\_version: 7.1.0  
minimum\_wire\_compatibility\_version: 5.6.0  
minimum\_index\_compatibility\_version: 5.0.0  
tagline:You Know, for Search

Now we can use Kibana dashboard for ES server and create index in ES server.  
But we can not create index in search service server. Any operation (POST/PUT) to search service server will result in error:  
`"status":403,"error":"OSCS-0004 Missing service GUID header: x-resource-service-instance-guid`

And we can not get the same response from the request sent to `http://<search-service_host>: 8080` and `http://<ES_host>:9200`

Do you know how to fix it? It has confused me for quite a while and few documents were found about this error/topic.

Thanks very much for any advice!

This issue does not sound like a Kibana one, as you can reproduce it going against Elasticsearch directly. I would recommend asking this in the Elasticsearch forum.
