Looking at the source for how DefaultCellLabelServiceImpl checks authorisation I noted it's just that the user just needs to have the 'system' label auth privileges - not admin/super user as I thought you meant Ram. So technically, I could have a client user that is given the system label privileges, but only read access to the 'hbase:labels' table?
Then that user will still be able to scan and read the labels + ordinal, and create the tags correctly :) I'll give it a go..

Looking at the source for PutSourceReducer it seems that it will actually lose the Cell Visibility information as it uses the getFamilyCellMap to create KeyValue objects and just uses that, and the CellVisibility is actually on the Put Mutation. So I think that unfortunately, I can only really work around this by giving the application user writing the HFile admin access so it can then use the VisibilityExpressionResolver to create cells with tags with the correct ordinals. Am I missing something? Why is it that a client user without admin/super user privileges can set a visibility expression using Put.setCellVisibility, but if we want to write using HFiles, the client user has to have admin/super user privileges so they can use VisibilityExpressionResolver to correctly create the tags on the Cell with correct ordinals?

Now I'm trying to do it using HFile. Sorry Ram, I don't quite follow why the user doing the writing of the HFile has to be an admin/super user? Is that necessary to load HFiles? The use case is to hopefully have an application user (non admin) performing the writes to an hbase table via a bulk load of an hfile, setting visibility labels on individual cells as necessary. Then business users who has been given the auth to view that label can see those cells, and others not. I've seen that it's possible to do this with map reduce & setting the map output to be a Put (and thus could setCellVisibility on the puts), but I'm struggling to do this with Spark, as I keep getting the exception that I can't cast a Put to a Cell.

This can be done. If you want different cells in the same row to have different labels then it is better to create those many puts and setCellVisibility on each of them. What type of overhead you see here? In terms of the server processing them? If so there should not be much overhead here and also adding different cells to every column inturn means you need every cell to be treated differenly in terms of security. so should be fine IMHO. Without doing put.setCellvisibility() there is no other way I believe. One question regarding your use case Now in the mail you had told about the spark job where you will create a bulk loaded file. Now if that is to have all the visibility related information of all the cells then the user doing this job should be an admin or super user right Why is the case that a normal client user will read through all the visibility cells which may or may not be associated with that user? Thank you very much for testing and using this feature. LEt us know your feedback and if you find any gaps here. Happy to help.
