Mimi Kimball created NIFI-672:
---------------------------------
Summary: Documentation: Admin Guide-Controlling Levels of Access
example incorrect
Key: NIFI-672
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-672
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Mimi Kimball
Priority: Trivial
This text has an error in it:
It is only necessary to manually add one user, the ADMIN user, to this file.
So, at a minimum, the following example entry should be included and contain
the user Distinguished Name (DN) in place of "user dn - read only and admin":
<users>
<user dn="[user dn - read only and admin]">
<role name="ROLE_ADMIN"/>
</user>
</users>
Here is an example entry using the name John Smith:
<users>
<user dn="[cn=John Smith,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com]">
<role name="ROLE_ADMIN"/>
</user>
</users>
************************************************************************************
The error is the brackets. To get the secure NiFi set up with role-based
access, the DN needs to be set withOUT the square brackets. So, here's the
correct syntax and example:
<user dn="cn=John Smith,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com">
