-------------------------------
Summary: GetHTTP should allow the Expression Language to be used
for the URL property
Key: NIFI-993
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-993
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Mark Payne
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 0.4.0
Currently, the GetHTTP Processor does not allow the Expression Language to be
used for the URL property. This was done because it is a Source Processor and
doesn't have any FlowFiles' attributes to evaluate. However, a very valid use
cause would be to reference functions like now(), hostname(), etc. or to
reference system properties. We should allow the Expression Language to be used
for this purpose.
