(Doc) How-to access operator generated Kibana encryptionKey #8129

Open

Description

👋 howdy, team!

Scale out a Kibana deployment covers the three encryptionKey settings required to scale out Kibana and/or successfully migrate SavedObjects/Reports across clusters: ( xpack.security.encryptionKey, xpack.reporting.encryptionKey, xpack.encryptedSavedObjects.encryptionKey).

It reports that these keys are "automatically generated by the operator" and an internal reference claims these persist across operator/stack version upgrades. However, for a customer to migrate data across clusters they need to access these values and I haven't been able to figure out how to output them. I had expected them to report under kubectl get secrets and/or the ECK Diagnostic's secrets.json.

I'm happy to update doc with provided answer or if y'all will kindly supplement how to output those operator autogenerated key-values 🙏

TIA! Stef
