Jie-Yang opened a new issue #3419: New Feature: Decide Superset Role Automatically based on certain LDAP field (like department)
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/issues/3419
 
 
   
   ### Superset version
   0.18.5
   
   ### Expected results
   When the Superset connect with LDAP server, we would love to see that the user will be given Superset role dynamically and automatically based on his/her records in LDAP server. Particularly  speaking, our LDAP server keep records of department where the user is belonged to. Hence, I want to give the user Super role automatically based on what department he/she comes from. 
   
   ### Actual results
   No such feature exists as what I can find now. Currently, we can only use the env var below in config file to set one singe role for all users. For example, Gamma role for all new users from LDAP auth. 
   
   AUTH_USER_REGISTRATION_ROLE= 'Gamma'
   
   ### Questions
   1. what would be best approach to implement such request?
   2. Is it a good feature which could be included in Superset for future release? 
   
   Thanks.
