[jira] [Updated] (RANGER-1811) Ranger Admin UI Policy Folder Hierarchies for organizing lots of policies

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-1811?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Hari Sekhon updated RANGER-1811:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
Feature Request to add policy folder hierarchy organization with the ability to expand/collapse sections of hierarchies.

A customer has requested this because they are using the Ranger API to generate policies and have nearly 12,000 policies for each of the HDFS and Hive services, scrolling through 400 pages of policies in Ranger Admin UI doesn't make sense.

This is somewhat offset by the policy search feature but in terms of organization once you have a lot of policies it makes sense to be able to put them in folder hierarchies that you can expand/collapse rather than having a flat list of 12,000 policies.
