      Hi,

      Zabbix server and frontend don't offer authentication header for Elasticsearch.

      However, Elasticsearch X-Pack security "works with standard HTTP basic authentication headers to authenticate users. Since Elasticsearch is stateless, this header must be sent with every request:

      Authorization: Basic <TOKEN>

      The <TOKEN> is computed as base64(USERNAME:PASSWORD) "

       

      it would be very usefull to have this in the 4.0 realse

      Regards, philippe.
