[DISCUSS] test results I ran through the release helper on a Mac (Tahoe 26.1) with openjdk version "25.0.1" 2025-10-21 LTS.
I additionally built the Container Images locally using Docker (Maven -P docker profile) and tested the resulting images using a docker compose stack containing NiFi, NiFi Registry, and calls through the NiFi Toolkit to create various components and Flows for testing. In general this worked well, but I noted that Reporting Tasks and global) Controller Services created via the Toolkit do not have their Properties migrated, e.g. "record-writer" is not migrated to "Record Writer" for any of the Site-to-Site Reporting Tasks. Similarly the "key-password" is not migrated to "Key Password" for StandardSSLControllerServices. Note also, that in the latter case, the (should be sensitive) value of the invalid key-password is printed to the UI tooltip warning, leading to potential secret exposure. Reported in Slack to the #dev channel [1] for discussion. I'm not sure whether this meets the threshold for a negative vote, although this would technically be a breaking change for anyone creating such components via the NiFi API (e.g. with Toolkit), so may warrant further investigation before release.
