Hi, You are correct, NiFi requires an encrypted connection for user authentication. This is because client identity is established in one of two ways:
- user name & password, which should not be sent over a non-encrypted connection - client certificate in a two-way TLS (HTTPS) connection I hope this answers your question. If HTTPS is suitable for your needs, here are some resources to help you get started: - NiFi System Administration Guide, specifically sections on User Authentication [1] and Multi-Tenant Authorization [2] - Bryan Bende's blog post on NiFi Authorization and Multi-Tenancy [3] I hope this helps! If you have any questions you can post back to this thread.
