Hi All,

We are trying to connect elasticsearch from Tableau via https. But in elasticsearch logs i always get ssl related errors.

We have installed elasticsearch certificates in Tableau and added below lines in elasticsearch.yml

http.cors.enabled: true
http.cors.allow-origin: “*”

Just posted this to check did anyone successfully connect from tableau and see if i am missing anything.

Hi,

version of elasticsearch ?
version of Readonlyrest?

could you share logs messages from elasticsearch logs ?

as not a lot have used Tableau, could you give more details on how you interconnect es and tableau ?

version of ES 6.2.1
version of readonlyREST 1.16.18

Error: [t.b.r.e.SSLTransportNetty4] io.netty.handler.ssl.NotSslRecordException: not an SSL/TLS record:

Tableau provides lots of plugins or connectors which support to connect lot of external applications. we use one such elastic connector

It works fine when the elasticsearch is not secured .
