---------------------------------------
Summary: UI to create/update entities - configuration to restrict
entity-types editable via UI
Key: ATLAS-1502
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-1502
Project: Atlas
Issue Type: Bug
Components: atlas-webui
Affects Versions: 0.8-incubating
Reporter: Madhan Neethiraj
ATLAS-1193 introduced UI to create and update entities. Currently the UI allows
an user to create entity of any entity-type - including the superTypes like
Referenceable, Asset, Process, etc. It may not be useful to support entity
creation of many such entity-types via UI. Restricting the UI to support only a
subset of entities would make the UI more usable and avoid potential confusion.
It should be possible to configure the list of entity-types supported via a
configuration, to enable deployments to satisfy specific needs. I would suggest
to use a configuration like:
{code}
atlas.ui.edit.supported.entity-types="type-1,type-2,type3"
{code}
- if the configuration is set to an empty value (or not set): UI should not
support create/edit of any entity
- if the configuration is set to is set to "*", then UI should allow
create/edit of any type of entity
