Can we disable auth in Operate?

Camunda 8 Topics

We don’t want to use any auth in the Operate dashboard we want it to be open.

Any way of achieving this?

Hi @vickey

Authorization and Authentication via Identity is a foundational component of the architecture of Camunda 8.
I don’t think you can bypass that if you use operate.

You could alternatively built our own custom operate for which you can grant everyone open access, the caveat here is that the backend of a custom operate will still need to communicate to Camunda with authentication.

Cheers,

You can disable identity, then operate will fallback to basic auth, where credentials are stored in elastic.

Be aware that you need to disable optimize as well, since it depends on identity.
