GetMongo can also use the body of a flowfile for the query. That is its new default behavior if you leave the query field blank and have an incoming connection from another processor. That would be a good way to integrate the flow with another application. For example, you could add FetchKafka to the flow and have your applications post messages to Kafka with the queries they want it to run and FetchKafka would send that JSON to GetMongo as it comes in. Or you could build a REST service that writes the JSON to disk and use GetFile to load it. Lots of ways to do this.
