Query Authentication

The query subsystem requires clients to authenticate by default. You can disable and re-enable authentication requirements.

See Search Tools and select your preferred interface for examples using user credentials or auth tokens.

Disable Query Authentication

The query subsystem uses unified auth system in the cluster by default. The unified_auth tunable defaults to true.

To allow queries to a cluster without authentication, add the enable_query_auth: false flag in the cluster configuration file:

spec:
  enable_query_auth: false

All query services will now respond to any incoming queries.

Enable Query Authentication

The query subsystem uses unified auth system in the cluster by default. The unified_auth tunable defaults to true.

Under the rare configuration that unified_authis false, require clients to authenticate by setting enable_query_auth: true flag in the cluster configuration file:

spec:
  enable_query_auth: true
