Can we have authentication configured for HTTP JSON PATH Data Adapters/

Hi Team,

I have ELK built as a database and planning to use JSON PATH DATA Adapter. Now my ELK is behind nginx reverse proxy and planning to use HTTP BASIC AUTH. Hence wondering if I can use authentication while configuring DATA Adapters?

TIA

Not sure what your JSON data is going to look like, but maybe check out my “JSON Remote Polling” plugin at https://marketplace.graylog.org/addons/6c783c82-7b45-4e78-a441-e44275648989 as it supports BASIC AUTH and reads in any GELF message.

Well I resolved the issue on nginx where I configured my nginx as reverse proxy publishing FQDN and that FQDN wasn’t published on internet.

I specifically configured hosts entry on the server so that server will use FQDN to connect and nginx blocks the connection if naked IP is used.

Along with that I configured ACL on nginx to pass only GET request and no POST/DELETE/PUT request.

Just to doubly sure!! :slight_smile:
