How to disable(or unfold) the (right)Sidebar via setting or better URL parameter

Hi, I got the following situation. I created a “view” user to show the Dashbord. It shows it on a big tv via an raspberry pi with chrome started as systemd with login via URL (https://<cmk-host>/<site>/check_mk/login.py?_username=view&_password=<password>&_login=1) works great, now my problem: After upgrading to cmk 2.0 there is this bar on the right side. It is foldable by clicking the button on the left side down. But I need to fold (hide) the sidebar without clicking, cause it should run…

Any new suggestions to hide the sidebar by default or with an URL parameter? I only found a way to change the position from right to left. The option “Show more / Show less” doesn’t have any impact to the sidebar, also “sidebar_fold.py?fold=” doesn’t work, or I integrated it to the URL the wrong way.

In our case we open checkmk with the autologin parameter “_username=view&_password=&_login=1”. A kiosk use is still not possible because the sidebar hides information and we still have to do a keyboard input to hide it. Any help?

thanks and cheers

Simple RTFM question:

Host and service views

Beside that you have the button on the left lower corner if your screen and in the user profile you can configure an URL in the user profile as start page.
