elasticsearchHow do I create a user in Elasticsearch?
Creating a user in Elasticsearch is a simple process. The following example code will create a user with the username elastic
and the password changeme
:
PUT /_security/user/elastic
{
"password" : "changeme",
"roles" : [ "superuser" ]
}
This will return an output indicating that the user was created successfully:
{
"created" : true
}
The code consists of a PUT
request to the endpoint /_security/user/elastic
, followed by a JSON object containing the user's password and roles. The roles in this example are set to superuser
, which gives the user full access to the cluster.
You can also specify additional roles, such as admin
, monitoring
or kibana_user
. For more information on roles and user management, see the Elasticsearch documentation.
