Failure to authenticate to Kibana with SSO

Resolved after 18 minutes, affecting Elastic Cloud Hosted, on June 16, 2026.

identified Jun 16, 2026, 10:57 AM UTC

We have detected an issue with the Kibana authentication flow. 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. We will post an update in 30 minutes, or sooner if there is a change in status.
