Manage Native Authentication

In this mode, users may be defined as a user defined locally within Talend Data Catalog . All create, edit, group assignments and deletion actions on that user may only be made within Talend Data Catalog .

When logging in using native authentication mode, if the user name is associated with a native user the system will authenticate that user with native authentication (based on the local password).
