Dashboard - autologin

Hi

Using autologin with some sites, but I cannot get dashboards to work on Samsung VXT CMS.

In a browser this works, but not on Samsung
https://checkmk.domain.xx/site/check_mk/login.py?_origtarget=/site/check_mk/dashboard.py?name=DashboardName&_username=User&_password=XXXXXXXXX&_login=1

If I use view and a secret, I can skip the &_login=1 and then this works on the Samsung VXT CMS
https://checkmk.domain.xx/site/check_mk/view.py?view_name=view_2&_username=User&_secret=XXXXXXXXX

But I want to show a Dashboard not view.
Is there any one that know how to fix this?

Second is I tried to read up on this and look like this feature is getting disabled
Werk #16223: Deprecate automation user login via HTTP parameters

So how do your other fix this in the long run?

Checkmk 2.5 gets view tokens that are bound to a certain dashboard or view. Their expiry date will be configurable.

Thanks, was affraid that only view through a basic authentication would be possible.

Do you know if view tokens will some in 2.4?

And do you know why view does not require &_login=1 and dashboard does?

Because that’s the think our Samsung VXT CMS does not work with.

Denis,

With Checkmk 2.5, you will be able to share externally dashboards which may include views as well. This would be possible thanks to a token authentication mechanism allocated to the shared dashboard.
