editX-Pack Breaking changes in 6.0
editThis section summarizes the changes that you need to be aware of when migrating your application to X-Pack 6.0.
- Reporting
-
- When X-Pack security is enabled, reports will only be accessible to the user that created them.
-
When X-Pack security is enabled, user authorization is controlled by the
xpack.reporting.roles.allow
setting in thekibana.yml
which defaults to['reporting_user']
. Users will no longer have access to the underlying X-Pack reporting indices in Elasticsearch when assigned to the built-inreporting_user
role. If using custom reporting roles, the privileges to the indices will need to be removed, and the role will need to be added to thexpack-reporting.roles.allow
setting.
