The `kibana-encryption-keys` command helps you generate encryption keys that {kib} uses
|
|
to protect sensitive information.
|
|
|
|
{kib} uses encryption keys in several areas, ranging from encrypting data
|
|
in {kib} associated indices to storing session information. By defining these
|
|
encryption keys in your configuration, you'll ensure consistent operations
|
|
across restarts.

=== Commands
|
|
|
|
`generate`:: Generate encryption keys.
|
|
+
|
|
Unless interactive mode (`-i`) is used, the generated encryption keys will be output to your console only.
|
|
From here, you should manually copy the keys into either `kibana.yml` or where else you're configurating {kib}.
|
|
+
|
|
`-i, --interactive`::: Prompts you for which encryption keys to set and optionally where to save a sample configuration file.
|
|
`-q, --quiet`::: Outputs the config options/encryption keys only (without helper information).
|
|
`-f, --force`::: Generates new keys for all settings. By default, only un-configured encryption keys will be generated.
|
|
`-h, --help`::: Shows help information.
