You may not want every role in your external authority to appear as a role in JasperReports Server. Use the permittedRolesRegex property of the externalUserSetupProcessor bean or mtExternalUserSetupProcessor bean to specify which external roles become roles in JasperReports Server. You can use regular expressions to specify multiple roles that match the expression.
For example, to restrict the roles you create in JasperReports Server to roles that begin with JRS_ or EXT_ in your external authority, you would configure permittedRolesRegex in a way similar to the following:
<property name="permittedRolesRegex"> <list> <value>JRS_.*</value> <value>EXT_.*</value> </list> </property>[/code] |
To allow all roles, use .* or comment out the property. If the property is omitted, all roles in the external authority are synchronized with roles in JasperReports Server.
Supporting Additional Characters in Role Names
The default mapping from attributes in your external authentication server to roles in JasperReports Server supports only alphanumeric characters and underscores. If a role in your external authority contains unsupported characters, each sequence of unsupported characters is replaced with a single underscore. For example, ROLE$-DEMO)EXT maps to ROLE_DEMO_EXT.
You can extend the supported character set by modifying the permittedExternalRoleNameRegex property of the externalUserSetupProcessor bean or mtExternalUserSetupProcessor bean. Check the sample configuration file for your deployment to determine which bean to modify.
The default value of the permittedExternalRoleNameRegex property is the regular expression [A-Za-z0-9_]+. Edit this expression to add supported characters. For example, the following syntax allows alphanumeric characters, underscores, and the Cyrillic letter Я (Unicode 042F):
<bean id="mtExternalUserSetupProcessor" class="com.jaspersoft.jasperserver.api.security. externalAuth.processors.MTExternalUserSetupProcessor" parent="abstractExternalProcessor"> <property name="userAuthorityService"> <ref bean="${bean.internalUserAuthorityService}"/> </property> ..... <property name="permittedExternalRoleNameRegex" value="[A-Za-z0-9_u042F]+"></bean>[/code] |
