Without this being set, the > machine in VPC A times out on generating temporary keys and is unable to > assume a role as a machine in VPC B. > This ticket arose from this conversation: > http://apache-nifi-developer-list.39713.n7.nabble.com/Nifi-Cross-Account-Download-With-A-Profile-Flag-td13232.html#a13252 > Goal: There are files stored in an S3 bucket in VPC B. My Nifi machines are > in VPC A. I want Nifi to be able to get those files from VPC B. VPC A and VPC > B need to be communicating in the FetchS3Object component. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
