But we don’t have SSO, so that would required the ambari credentials be

Ambari provides rest APIs to pull the values as long as you know (or can
write a chain of calls to find) things like the name of the cluster and

are various ways. A bad, though arguably viable way would be to grab it
from the config files ambari writes and hope the restart had happened since
the last change.

Ambari provides rest APIs to pull the values as long as you know (or can write 
a chain of calls to find) things like the name of the cluster and variable. Of 
course you’re writing an Ambari service, in which case there are various ways. 
A bad, though arguably viable way would be to grab it from the config files 
ambari writes and hope the restart had happened since the last change.

The question is:  How would one correctly access the values of the
variables for metron that are set in Ambari?
Say, to get the patterns dir in hdfs?
