Elasticsearch authentication?

[kamsz]

Hi,

Is it possible to provide an authentication to the Elasticsearch endpoint? I've tried https://username:password@host:port, but apparently, it doesn't work very well.

Afaik ES doesnt support authentication out of the box. either you add a proxy in front or you use their shield xpack

Yeah, I'm asking how I should provide authentication details to Elasticsearch for Vamp? I've ES instance that has authentication enabled through x-pack (Elastic Cloud cluster).

Ok Understood. Vamp enterprise supports secure elastic communication. Are you looking for "plain" authentication headers or more advanced shield/x-pack integration and support?

Just a plain HTTP Basic auth.
