So if you really want the feature, there is nothing stopping you from installing the plugin, disable geofence and use only the rest feature.

Actually, there is one, but it is (unfortunately) part of the geofence plug-in; even though it works for users/groups/roles in geoserver whether you are using geofence or not.

Hi Jacob

There is REST API for handling Access Control

http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/rest/api/accesscontrol.html

But there is no REST API for uses,groups an roles.

Cheers

    Hi Jukka,
    I think the current direction is to make GeoFence more and more into
    an extension that does not require a separate app to be running,
    and have
    GeoFence use the GeoServer own users.

    Lacking a REST API to edit the simple XML user catalogs, one can
    still
    use the JDBC or LDAP ones, and then edit the users in the database
    or LDAP server:

    http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/security/auth/providers.html

        Hi list

        When browsing through the REST API documentation here

        http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/rest/api/

        I'm wondering... I can't find anything regarding creation of
        users, roles and data access rules. Am I right about this? Is
        it not in any way possible to create a user, assign a role to
        him and assign access rules to this role through the REST API?

        If this is not possible, I hope it's part of the future plans
        for Geoserver, as it would be a huge improvement for me.

        Thanks in advance,

        Jacob Madsen
