<a name="accessing-hue"></a>

Connecting to the Hue web user interface is the same as connecting to any HTTP interface hosted on the master node of a cluster. The following procedure describes how to access the Hue user interface. For more information, see [View web interfaces hosted on EMR clusters](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/emr/latest/ManagementGuide/emr-web-interfaces.html) in the *Amazon EMR Management Guide*.

**To view the Hue web user interface**

1. Follow these instructions to [Set up an SSH tunnel to the master node using dynamic port forwarding](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/emr/latest/ManagementGuide/emr-ssh-tunnel.html) in the *Amazon EMR Management Guide*.

1. Type the following address in your browser to open the **Hue** web interface: `http://master public DNS:8888` where *master public dns* is the public DNS name of your cluster master node, for example `ec2-11-22-333-44.compute-1.amazonaws.com`.

1. At the Hue login screen, if you are the administrator logging in for the first time, enter a user name and password to create your Hue superaccount and then select **Create account**. Otherwise, type your username and password and select **Create account** or enter the credentials provided by your administrator.
