  1. investigating Jun 16, 2026, 10:57 AM UTC

    We have detected an issue with the Kibana authentication flow for both Deployments and Projects. Authenticating to Kibana using the "Log in with Elastic Cloud" button results in an authentication failure. A workaround is to access Kibana using the link inside the Elastic Cloud console. We are currently working on a resolution. Our team is currently identifying the root cause to resolve the issue. We will share another update in the next hour.

    We are continuing to investigate this issue.

  3. resolved Jun 16, 2026, 11:36 AM UTC

    We have identified the root cause and mitigated the issue. Users should now be able to log in to Kibana via the "Log in with Elastic Cloud" button.
