Automatic login for NOC-type Zabbix display.

Hi all,

I'm not sure what the terminology is for this kind of system, which has hampered my searching somewhat, so maybe if there's a specific term, someone could enlighten me. Anyway:

I'm trying to build a Zabbix NOC-type display screen for our office on a Raspberry Pi 3, using Ubuntu Core 22, and the ubuntu-frame and wpe-webkit-mir-kiosk snaps, per the info here - [https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/make-a-secure-ubuntu-web-kiosk/29335](https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/make-a-secure-ubuntu-web-kiosk/29335) \-

However I need to get the mir-kiosk tool to pass (or retain) login credentials for the Zabbix server so that it shows the correct dashboard we have created for the NOC display automatically on boot. The kiosk gets as far as the 'You need to log in page' when I pass it the URL, even if I give it something like

https://<zabbix-server>/zabbix/index.php?name=<NOCUserID>&password=<NOCUserPassword>&Sign%20in

We have several units with different NOC display requirements, so we have a user for each, so we can't just use the public no-login disdplay.

Any pointers or alternatives please? We're on Zabbix 6.4.12

Many thanks,James
