@GKHN_ As I described in my first response, Authentication and Authorization are two different processes. So it sounds like from your comment that authentication is working fine for both your users and authorization is failing for your non admin user. So issue is within the authorization phase. I assume both of your users are authenticating via ldap? In your ldap-provider in the login-identity-providers.xml you have the "Identity Strategy" set to "USE_DN". With this setting you the users full ldap DN will be used as the user identity string after successful authentication. This means that entire DN is being passed to the authorizer to lookup if that full dn has been authorized to the requested end-point NiFi policy. I see you have your initial admin identity manually defined in the file-user-group-provider and the file-access-policy provider: CN=NIFIUSER,OU=Userpro,OU=CUsers,OU=Company,DC=company,DC=entp So when you login via ldap with this user's ldap username and ldap password, the user's entire DN is being passed to the authorizer and the file-access-policy provider has setup all admin related NiFi policies for this initial admin user identity. I also see from the shared authorizers.xml that the only user-group-provider the "file-access-policy provider" is configured to use is the "file-user-group-provider". The file-user-group-provider requires the admin user to manually add additional user identities manually from the with the NiFi UI (Remember that with your current ldap-provider login provider, all your ldap user identities are going to be full DNs). As the admin user, go to the NiFi global menu and select "USERS": From the NiFi Users UI, select the "+" to add a new user: Then enter the full DN for your second user (Case sensitive). unless you have added any groups, your list of groups will be blank. Now that you have added this second user identity, you'll need to start authorizing that user identities for the various policy they need. In order to access the NiFi UI, all users must be authorized to "view the user interface". From the same NiFi Global menu mentioned above, select "Policies" this time. Then from the "Access Policies" UI that appears, select "view the user interface" from the policy list pull-down. Then click on the icon to the right that looks like a person with a "+". Find the user identity you just added and check the box and click the "Add" button. Now this user can access the NIFi UI. There are other policies this user will need before they can start building dataflows on the UI. NiFi allows for very granular authorizations. But at the minimum the user will need to be authorized on the process group in which they will build their dataflows. Not all policies are defined from the "Access Policies" UI in the global menu. the component level policies are define directly via the individual component (keep an eye out for the "key" icon) From the "Operation" panel directly on the NiFi canvas you can set policies on the currently selected component: Above I have selected my root Process Group (PG). If you click the key icon you will see all the access policies that users can be authorized for. You'll need to select each one by one your user will need and add the user to them. Above will allow you to setup access for your additional users using the file-user-group-provider you have configured in your authorizers.xml. Please help our community grow.
