Thanks @Kevin Minder @Imccay for quick reply. I just want username from Knox url , so that I can pass this username to my custom service in Ranger for authorization. I tried to make changes in rewrite.xml as suggested but couldn't succeed in getting username in header.I checked gateway-audit.log and found this statement. dispatch|uri|http://{hostname}:{portno}/customService/insert?user.name=user_abc|success|Response status: 200 I could see user.name appended in above dispatch url. I could retrieve this username as a query parameter from my custom rest service. I did not make any changes for this. Is this the default behaviour of Knox , that it appends username in dispatch url?
