Thanks Mark for your kind reply. Would you a be bit more specific as I am a newbie? I am sorry if I had not been clear enough what I want to achieve. As far as I know that Apache level access is based on relative static path/url, it won’t know detail how kibana works. I would like to restrict access to 'some' of the kibana dashboards, not all. Is it possible to achieve by configuring on the Kibana side? If on the apache side, do I have restrict the specific URLs of the Kibana dashboard to the specific group of people, e.g. as follows.
<Location /someDir> Order deny,allow deny from all allow from 192.168. allow from 104.113. </Location> <Location /anotherDir> Order deny,allow deny from all allow from 192.168. allow from 104.113. </Location> In this case, for example, if I want to restrict an URL like http://myESHost:9200/_plugin/kopf/#/!/cluster, what do I have to put after <Location /???>. Sorry if I have asked a very naive question. Thanks again for your time. Cheers!
