Matt Gilman commented on NIFI-2940:
-----------------------------------

[~aldrin] It's really an implementation detail. When unsecured, the anonymous 
user will have full permissions. The checks still execute, however they are 
just always approved. Because we are doing resource-based authorization, if the 
resource is missing, there is nothing we can check against. I think the 
proposed solution addresses both issues and is consistent with other 
permissions for purging history. We would grant access to the history for a 
component if the user has read to that component or if the user has read to the 
Controller.

> I have an unsecured instance of NiFi running a fairly standard flow.
> Upon deleting a connection I had wanted to see what relationships were 
> attached to it, and viewed the Flow Configuration History.  In that listing, 
> while I could see that there was an event that took place, all of the details 
> were listed as unauthorized.
> I additionally tested with other components (processors, funnels, etc) and 
> noted similar results.
