             Summary: LDAP - Support configurable user identity
                 Key: NIFI-3020
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3020
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Extensions
            Reporter: Matt Gilman


The current LDAP provider supports a configurable search filter that will allow 
the user specified login name to be matched against any LDAP entry attribute. 
We should offer a configuration option that will indicate if we should use the 
LDAP entry DN or if we should use the login name that was used in the search 
filter. This would allow an admin to configure a user to login with their 
sAMAccountName and subsequently use that name as their user's identity.

Note: we should default this option to be the user DN in order to ensure 
backwards capability.
