Secure JUST the (UI) Dashboard

General
1

Hello,

I have the editor secure, behind VPN, and using the username password.

I have numerous API endpoints and use a mixture of header values, including API keys, to help validate the calls.

I want to put the (UI) dashboards on the DMZ but behind credentials.

Following the documentation, setting the httpNodeAuth works, but it adds browser authentication to the editor credentials. All API endpoints now require credentials.

Is there any way to just apply credentials to the UI only without impacting other endpoints?

TIA
Harry

I'm all set now.

I found this article.

WOW! Thank you to @meeki007. This is great.

Great work; I just changed the node layout. My OCD couldn't follow the flow.
This was a lot of work, and it got me what I needed.

I will build on this and move the file data into Redis, which I use for context storage.

Thanks

Harry
