[jira] [Updated] (NIFI-4211) Support shared provider configuration
information for authentication and authorization
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4211?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Yolanda M. Davis updated NIFI-4211:
-----------------------------------
Description: With the introduction of the new UserGroup and Policy provider interfaces there appears to be an opportunity to allow users to share UserGroup provider config information for login identity (authentication). For example, when using a single LDAP source for authentication and to pull user/group information to correlate with policy, currently users would need to setup configuration in both the login-identity-providers.xml and the authorizers.xml files with essentially the same information. Having a way to share this provider information between these two features I think would help simplify setup.
