I don't think the mapping tricks help me, but happy to be convinced otherwise.

Check out this section:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/ssl-tcp.html#SSL-CLIENT-CERTIFICATES

"... the cn (Common Name) in the certificate matches the user name or an applicable mapping."

This section spells out what is needed for the various forms of client cert SSL authentication.


I have specific roles accessing specific schemas via sql which is not schema qualified.


I'm assuming this is some sort of security. Just wondering if there is provision made for people who know how to do SET search_path or \dn or schema qualify objects?
