This looks great! I’ve tried using it with proxy auth but it didn’t set the headers on outgoing requests to opensearch, like dashboards does when using the default data source. I didn’t try the other authentication types.
I think this will be pretty key for non-trivial use cases, as you’ll want the backend to audit the real user doing the query, and have different permissions for different users
