How to update opensearch_dashboards.yml?

Security
1

Versions (relevant - OpenSearch/Dashboard/Server OS/Browser):
v2.12

Describe the issue:
After updating opensearch.yml, we are required to execute the securityadmin script to make the changes.
However, for opensearch_dashboards.yml, I didn’t find anything. Do we only need to save the file and restart (systemctl restart opensearch-dashboards) ?

Thank you in advance,

@lokinoo Security configuration is kept only in the OpenSearch index. That’s why it must be initiated only on the OpenSearch side.
When you make any changes in the opensearch_dashboards.yml file, then you must only restart the OpenSearch Dashboards service to apply the new configuration.
