Elasticsearch is a distributed, RESTful search and analytics engine designed for horizontal scalability, reliability, and real-time search. It enables users to store, search, and analyze big volumes of data quickly and in near real-time. Elasticsearch is widely used for log and event data analysis, full-text search, and complex searches across large datasets.
Through this integration, Apono helps you securely manage access to your Elasticsearch instance.
Apono Connector
On-prem connection serving as a bridge between an Elasticsearch instance and Apono:
Apono HTTP Proxy
You can also use the steps below to integrate with Apono using Terraform.
In step 8, instead of clicking Confirm, follow the Are you integrating with Apono using Terraform? guidance.
Follow these steps to complete the integration:
Under Discovery, click Next. The Apono connector section expands.
From the dropdown menu, select a connector.
Click Next. The Integration Config section expands.
Define the Integration Config settings.
Integration Name
Unique, alphanumeric, user-friendly name used to identify this integration when constructing an access flow
Proxy Address
Elasticsearch proxy address
Clusters
Array of Elasticsearch clusters
Example: [{"name":"cluster-1","hostname":"cluster-1.customer.com:9200"}]
Click Next. The Get more with Apono section expands.
Define the Get more with Apono settings.
Credential Rotation
(Optional) Number of days after which the database credentials must be rotated
User cleanup after access is revoked (in days)
(Optional) Defines the number of days after access has been revoked that the user should be deleted
Custom Access Details

Integration Owner
From the Attribute dropdown menu, select User or Group under the relevant identity provider (IdP) platform.
From the Value dropdown menu, select one or multiple users or groups.
NOTE: When Resource Owner is defined, an Integration Owner must be defined.
Resource Owner
Enter a Key name. This value is the name of the tag created in your cloud environment.
From the Attribute dropdown menu, select an attribute under the IdP platform to which the key name is associated. Apono will use the value associated with the key (tag) to identify the resource owner. When you update the membership of the group or role in your IdP platform, this change is also reflected in Apono.
NOTE: When this setting is defined, an Integration Owner must also be defined.
Click Confirm.
to manage Elasticsearch The default Elasticsearch capabilities do not include authorization controls and therefore neither does the API. When integrating with Apono using the HTTP Proxy, you will be able to manage access to Elasticsearch using Apono Access Flows.
On the tab, click Elasticsearch. The Connect integration page appears.
If the desired connector is not listed, click + Add new connector and follow the instructions for creating a connector (, , , ).
