Important - Managed integrations on Elastic Cloud Hosted
You can use this integration as an Elastic Managed integration on Elastic Cloud Hosted deployments running this version or later.
authentik is an IdP (Identity Provider) and SSO (single sign on) that is built with security at the forefront of every piece of code, every feature, with an emphasis on flexibility and versatility.
The authentik integration collects event, group, and user logs using REST API.
The authentik integration collects three types of logs:
Elastic Agent must be installed. For more details, check the Elastic Agent installation instructions.
This integration supports both Elastic Managed and Agent-based installations.
Elastic Managed integrations are only supported on Elastic Cloud Serverless and Elastic Cloud Hosted deployments. An Elastic Managed integration lets you ingest data from a cloud source while avoiding the orchestration, management, and maintenance associated with standard ingest infrastructure. Elastic runs the collector for you, so you can focus on your data instead of the infrastructure that collects it.
For more information, refer to Elastic Managed integrations and the Elastic Managed integrations FAQ.
Elastic Agent must be installed. For more details, check the Elastic Agent installation instructions. You can install only one Elastic Agent per host.
