Secure settings

edit

Similar to Elasticsearch, you can use Kubernetes secrets to manage secure settings for Kibana.

For example, you can define a custom encryption key for Kibana as follows:

  1. Create a secret containing the desired setting:

    kubectl create secret generic kibana-secret-settings \
 --from-literal=xpack.security.encryptionKey=94d2263b1ead716ae228277049f19975aff864fb4fcfe419c95123c1e90938cd

  2. Add a reference to the secret in the secureSettings section:

    apiVersion: kibana.k8s.elastic.co/v1
kind: Kibana
metadata:
  name: kibana-sample
spec:
  version: 8.18.0
  count: 3
  elasticsearchRef:
    name: "elasticsearch-sample"
  secureSettings:
  - secretName: kibana-secret-settings
