@mmiklavc the knoxsso is enabled with a toggle in the mpack, to follow the
pattern for NiFi, Ranger and Atlas etc. There is a kind of failover of auth
methods: knoxsso, ldap, nothing in our case. Many of the API calls require auth
because they use username to load settings in the rest backend. As such Iâm
not sure no-auth makes sense, but maybe a default to anon would allow
@rmerrimanâs use case of dev runs, Iâd still say that was a case for a mock
backend though, in angular rather than rest.
