Status Not under consideration
Workspace Watson Studio

Created on Aug 28, 2019

User Management: Must support AD groups and role mapping.

AD groups should be leading in access granding, not WSL process.

LDAP should do autherization and authentication.
Once LDAP group is setup, it should be respected and not allow re-authentication without check LDAP group status.

If LDAP policy is defined, 3 field should be disabled currently shown in WSL.

In the admin tool, groups should be able to add and edited and be mapped to WSL authentication/policy, not to be overwritten by internal WSL processes. Induvidual user adding is forbidden by Nordea policy.

• Version of your WSL == v.1.2.3.1
• Infrastructure (e.g. Bare Metal, VM on Bare Metal, or VM on Cloud Infrastructure such as AWS or SoftLayer) == Redhat OpenShift
• Number of nodes (e.g. 3 nodes + 1 deployment + DSXHI) = 22 nodes + DSXHI
• Operating System on each nodes = Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.6
• Did it used to work? => It never worked
• How many users are affected? => All users
• Is there a known deadline? => As soon as possible
• please provide a business justification => Without this feature the tool can't be used in Nordea production environment according to security policy.
