Disabling username and password layer in RStudio proxy

How can I disable the authentication for RStudio?

It is having by default log process of login prompt. I want to remove the login prompt and login directly.

This is currently not possible in the Community Edition of RStudio.

If you're using the Professional Edition, then you should refer here:

Proxied Authentication

It says, you should change the following parameters under /etc/rstudio/rserver.conf

auth-proxy=1
auth-proxy-sign-in-url=http://example.com/sign-in

The auth-proxy-sign-in-url should be your own authentication page or service which will be redirected from Rstudio server.

This auth-proxy-sign-url (after successful authentication) should then send a request with the following header back to the Rstudio server URL:

X-RStudio-Username: jsmith

Rstudio will use the header to recognize which user is trying to login to the server automatically.
