Insufficient Permissions

[cassiano-monuv]

I made the settings as described in the readme, but the users are without permission. How does it work to define the admin user?

Hi @cassiano-monuv,

The initial admin user is generated by NiFi when it starts (see single-user-provider section in file conf/login-identity-providers.xml). You can use it to log in the first time and give rights to users created with https://github.com/easy-global-market/nifi-file-identity-provider-bundle#initialize-user-credentials.

What should also work is to change the id of the Initial User / Admin Identity in file conf/authorizers.xml and set it to one of the user you have just created (in the three places).

Let me know.

I tried to configure the settings as you mentioned, but I keep getting an error. The initial admin user generated by nifi loses access and the credentials are invalid. No access is granted to any user. I will share my configuration files, could you help me find what I'm doing wrong?

structure of my project:

• nifi
  -- DockerFile
  -- authorizers.xml
  -- login-credentials.xml
  -- login-identity-provideres.xml
  -- nifi.properties
  -- nifi-file-identity-provider-nar-1.27.0.nar
  -- docker-compose.yml

Hi @cassiano-monuv,

I made some minor improvements in the README to make it easier to configure the extension. I have done the full configuration from a clear NiFi installation and it worked well.

I had a look at the files you provided. I just noticed that in authorizers.xml, it is missing the declaration of the initial admin (https://github.com/easy-global-market/nifi-file-identity-provider-bundle/tree/master#create-and-give-admin-rights-to-the-first-user), it also seems this file is not mounted into your Docker image.

Regards,

Benoit.
