             Summary: Automatically map group of external users to 
Administrator Role
                 Key: RANGER-1491
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-1491
             Project: Ranger
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: Ranger
    Affects Versions: 0.6.3
            Reporter: Attila Kanto


I have connected Ranger to external LDAP and users are synchronised form there 
with "User" role.
It would be a good feature to to introduce a mechanism to automatically map 
certain users (e.g. they are in a specific group) to "Administrator" role. 

Motivation:
If Knox gateway and Knox SSO are enabled for Ranger then only those users can 
authenticate and login through Knox SSO that are in the LDAP. Ranger's local 
administrator user is not in LDAP therefore it cannot authenticate and log in 
to Ranger UI through Knox SSO.
