I have an AWS Elasticsearch instance with a Kibana link that I want to share with another person, so that they can access this data from their browser. How can I allow them access?

This blog post does a great job of describing the options available to you for controlling access to Amazon ElasticSearch.

  • You can use identity federation via Cognito User Pools.
  • Resource based policy: Explicitly allow access to the cluster for a given IAM user ID in the ElasticSearch policy.
  • User based policy: Explicitly grant that IAM user's role access to the ARN of your ES cluster
  • Put your ES service behind a proxy with authentication
