[jira] [Created] (NIFI-2392) Authorizations should be more portable between NiFi instances

Matthew Clarke created NIFI-2392:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Authorizations should be more portable between NiFi instances
                 Key: NIFI-2392
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2392
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core Framework
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: Matthew Clarke
            Priority: Minor


Currently the authorizations.xml file is tied directly to the instance it is part of.  Because of this the file cannot be used to seed another new install of NiFi 1.0 on another machine.

Would be nice to split this file in to two separate files. (authorizations-users.xml and authorizations-policies.xml). Since users and groups are not unique to an instance, those entires could be put in the authorizations-users.xml and thus be reused on new installs of NiFi. 

This provides for a better user experience.
