Installed HDP 3.1 cluster and later added Atlas and Ranger services. Seeing problem where classifications and glossary tags created in atlas do not show up in ranger's tag-based policy creation ui, eg. in atlas I see [image: enter image description here] <https://i.stack.imgur.com/tm66b.png>but in ranger UI, I see nothing... [image: enter image description here] <https://i.stack.imgur.com/t8wlK.png>[image: enter image description here] <https://i.stack.imgur.com/2JqeD.png>though granted I have never used atlas or ranger before, so not exactly sure what I *should* be seeing.
Looking at a post with a similar question <http://community.hortonworks.com/answers/93426/view.html>, they offer some possibilities: 1) Tags are syncd but resource lookup not working for tags. 2) tags are not syncd Checking (1), I look for the tagsync node and do...

Also note that in the ambari UI, for atlas I see ranger.plugin.atlas.ambari.cluster.name={{cluster_name}} and for ranger I see ranger.tagsync.atlas.default.cluster.name={{cluster_name}} So the syncing should not be a problem. So neither of these seem to be a problem, yet not seeing a way to set ranger tags on the classifications created in atlas. Am I misunderstanding something here?
