> 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
> Assignee: Matt Gilman
> Fix For: 1.1.0
>
>
> 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. For instance, 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 compatibility.
