--------------------------------------
[~vel], sorry for the delayed response on this, I tried with \{USER}, that was
not working. I created a PR which should ideally add this functionality
Can you guys please have a preliminary look at it:
[https://github.com/apache/ranger/pull/90]
Travis CI build actually is failing in RangerSafeNetKeySecure file, but I did
not do any change in that file
> Ranger Row Level Filter (See only data corresponding to user logged in
> without the need to create multiple user entries in policy)

> We are using Apache Ranger as our Security pipeline. We found out that Ranger
> has a Row Level Filter option where we can limit the data visible to
> particular users. The issue we are facing is that, let's say there are some
> 100 or 1000 of users which we need to restrict to see only their own data in
> a particular hive table, we need to create 100 or 1000 entries in Ranger Row
> Level Policy, for ex: for each user A, we need to create a separate filter in
> policy saying user_name = "A". This sometimes hit the DB limit for a policy
> meta and we need to bifurcate the policy into 2-3 or many parts. Is there a
> way making use of \{USER} and user_name = \{USER}, we can restrict each user
> to see only its own data?
>
>
> Also, in Row Level Filter currently we allow only Select, I would like to
> check if we are looking forward for more such filter specific operations such
> as Insert or Alter
