Andrew Lim resolved NIFI-2966. ------------------------------ Resolution: Fixed Fix Version/s: 1.7.0 > Add policy resource descriptors to Admin Guide listing of policies > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: NIFI-2966 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2966 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Documentation & Website > Affects Versions: 1.0.0 > Reporter: Andy LoPresto > Assignee: Andrew Lim > Priority: Minor > Labels: authorization, beginner, documentation, policy > Fix For: 1.7.0 > > Original Estimate: 1h > Remaining Estimate: 1h > > While ideally a user/admin would never have to examine the > {{$NIFI_HOME/conf/users.xml}} or {{$NIFI_HOME/conf/authorizations.xml}} > files, in my development and debugging, I have had to on more than one > occasion. It would be helpful to list the actual policy resource descriptor > (e.g. {{/provenance}}, {{/flow}}, {{/tenants}}) in the table in the [Admin > Guide|https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/html/administration-guide.html#global-access-policies] > listing these policies. When the provenance policy was missing for both of > my defined users, I could not add it through the UI, so I had to manually > edit the {{authorizations.xml}} file, but I did not know the resource > descriptor a priori, so I had to search the code base for it. > I envision simply adding an additional column to the table and adding the > descriptor, including a placeholder if necessary (e.g. > {{/data/process-groups/}}_root-process-group-id_). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
