Mark Payne commented on NIFI-8638:
----------------------------------
[~tomten1970] I agree that it should at least show the "Go To" arrow instead of
the "Convert to Parameter" arrow. I am ok with it saying "Sensitive value set"
though. I say this because when you go to set the property value and you enter
{{#{password}}} as the value, and click OK it immediately shows "Sensitive
value set" but has the Go To arrow. I think it should be consistent when
configuring the processor again.
> Sensitive Properties referencing Parameters should show that in UI

> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: 1.13.2
> Environment: Linux RedHat
> java 11 sapmachine-jdk-11.0.10_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz
> Reporter: Jul Tomten
> Priority: Major

> An issue with passowords for the getJMS and InvokeHTTP processors - I want
> to store the passwords in the "context properties" and reference from the
> processor but it doesn't work. I'm on NiFi 1.13.2. I enter for
> example #\{mypassword}
> in the password value field in the processor BasicAuthenticationUsername and
> it works setting that but after activating and reopening the value field
> reads "sensitive value set" and the little arrow to the right is pointing up
> (arrow indicating parameter is not yet stored in context). Expected is that
> the arrow point to the right (indicating that the value is fetched from the
> context). The password in the context properties isn't used when testing and
> login fails.
> To make it run it is necessary to set the password in the processor instead
> fo referencing with #\{mypassword}.
