---------------------------------------
Summary: Need an API / configuration parameter to find out the
authenticated user from beeline
Key: HIVE-13085
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13085
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Oleksiy Sayankin
Assignee: Oleksiy Sayankin
This request has come from the customer who wanted an API / configuration
parameter to identify the authenticated user from the beeline. This is similar
to the request done in the thread below:
https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/2620/hadoop-environment-variable-or-configuration-varia.html
But this would not be a feasible option for the requestor. So here the general
ask is once the user is logged in to the beeline, they wanted to identify who
this user is and then use this information to enforce the ACLs on the tables
through the customer's custom code.
