Hi @nap608 ,
Could you please share config.yml ?
Do you want to authenticate OpenSearch Dashboard client using client certificate authentication?
@nap608 , what is the status of your OpenSearch cluster?
I want to know it’s sure that the configuration for cluster has already done.
Run curl localhost:9200/_cat/health?v and check it.
Hi,
I made it work somehow, I’ve created a new role and assign it to both the kibana user and the certificate user, and gave it permissions I’ve found missing on the logs.
I wanted to make a read only role, but I had issues when doing that, could you please check if that okay and advise how to make it read only and to display dashboard and make it work?
config.yml
the config.yml is default values expect for this change:
roles.yml
the roles.yml is default values expect for this change:
‘my_cert_role’ is the new role i’ve created and assign to kibana and cert user.
I would like to remove the admin permissions but it currently complains on logs and dashboard is gone when I do that.
opensearch.yml
opensearch-dashboards.yml
Hi @nap608 ,
Sorry for my late reply. Please have a look at the following documentation:
Yeah… if those documentations were helpful for me I wouldn’t have to post here 
Did you manage to log in to OpenSearch Dashboards? Do you have only the client certificate authentication in your config.yml file?
