auto login for unmanaged devices

[dampee]

We have Seq protected with passwords, but we’ve run into a practical issue.

We’re using a Raspberry Pi to start up the main Seq dashboard and display it on an unmanaged device. The problem is that every time the Pi reboots, we need to connect a keyboard and mouse to log back in to Seq manually.

It would be really helpful if Seq supported an option to automatically log in to a specific dashboard (or even multiple dashboards, or events) — especially since the new screen we’re using will be a touchscreen. This would make the setup much more seamless for kiosk-style or monitoring scenarios.

Hi @dampee

You can use an API key for this purpose: https://datalust.co/docs/dashboards#login-free-dashboards
