Breaking changes

Removed all security v1 endpoints (9.0.0)

Details

GET /api/security/v1/logout has been replaced by GET /api/security/logout GET /api/security/v1/oidc/implicit has been replaced by GET /api/security/oidc/implicit GET /api/security/v1/oidc has been replaced by GET /api/security/oidc/callback POST /api/security/v1/oidc has been replaced by POST /api/security/oidc/initiate_login POST /api/security/v1/saml has been replaced by POST /api/security/saml/callback GET /api/security/v1/me has been removed with no replacement.

Impact
Any HTTP API calls to the v1 Kibana security endpoints will fail with a 404 status code starting from version 9.0.0. Third party OIDC and SAML identity providers configured with v1 endpoints will no longer work.

Action
Update any OIDC and SAML identity providers to reference the corresponding replacement endpoint listed above. Remove references to the /api/security/v1/me endpoint from any automations, applications, tooling, and scripts.

Access to all internal APIs is blocked (9.0.0)

Details
Access to internal Kibana HTTP APIs is restricted from version 9.0.0. This is to ensure that HTTP API integrations with Kibana avoid unexpected breaking changes. Refer to #193792.

Impact
Any HTTP API calls to internal Kibana endpoints will fail with a 400 status code starting from version 9.0.0.

Action
Do not integrate with internal HTTP APIs. They may change or be removed without notice, and lead to unexpected behaviors. If you would like some capability to be exposed over an HTTP API, create an issue. We would love to discuss your use case.
