> I don't see the usefulness of such a method and I am not sure it is worth the big code change, sorry Hello Marco! Thanks for your time! In the past I've been use NiFi for some data trasformations and, sometime, some automatical conversions (for example from JSON -> Avro) wasn't compatible with the "empty value filosofy" used inside NiFi. For example: When I have an empty value: what is it? Is it a string? is a number? It could be a "null" values? This change skips this misunderstanding enabling the user to use programmatically NULL value (inside of expression language) if you think it's better, I can create an article to expose that!
