-------------------------------------
Summary: Add support for header based authentication
Key: ATLAS-5308
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-5308
Project: Atlas
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Abhishek Kumar
Assignee: Abhishek Kumar
Atlas server currently support multiple authentication mechanisms, including
Kerberos, username/password (LDAP, local users), and SSO. To support
deployments behind trusted proxy servers Atlas should support header-based
authentication. When enabled, Atlas reads a configured HTTP header for username
and (optionally) roles/groups, creates a trusted-proxy authentication token,
and propagates a request-id for audit/log correlation. This mode is designed
for proxy-managed auth where Atlas trusts upstream identity headers.
Suggested Atlas configurations:
* {{atlas.authn.header.enabled}}
* {{atlas.authn.header.username}}
* {{atlas.authn.header.roles}}
* {{atlas.authn.header.requestid}}
