             Summary: Add feature to CSVReader to skip N lines at top/bottom of 
the file
                 Key: NIFI-8932
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-8932
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Philipp Korniets


We have a lot of CSV files where provider add custom header/footer to valid CSV 
content.
CSV header is actually second row. 

To remove unnecessary data we can use
 * ReplaceText 
 * splitText->RouteOnAttribute -> MergeContent

It would be great to have an option in CSVReader controller to skip N rows from 
top/bottom in order to get5 clean data.
 * skip N from the top
 * skip M from the bottom
