-------------------------------
Summary: Improve UpdateAttribute documentation to note that
changes within an instance of the processor do not affect each other
Key: NIFI-1677
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1677
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core Framework, Documentation & Website
Reporter: Joe Skora
Priority: Minor
The documentation should note that changes within a single instance of the
UpdateAttribute processor do not affect each other, since it doesn't handle
dependencies between other attribute updates on the same instance of the
processor.
For instance, if an attribute X is created, a separate update for attribute Y
on the same processor instance cannot depend on the resulting value of X. In
this case X would have to be updated in one processor instance and Y would have
be updated in a downstream process instance so that the new value of X will be
reflected on the incoming flow file.
