------------------------------------------------------

Hi Josef,

Actually I had the same workaround in my mind, but I think that doesn't deny 
the fact that we need the GetSplunk processor to accept input flowfiles.

That made me think though, Do we really need an extra processor for a change 
that simple ? I think we can change the GetSplunk processor to be able to take 
input flowfiles or not just like InvokeHTTP processor

I understand what [~bbende] say, and I think there is no conflict in having the 
processor do both roles. If time strategy is managed then it can do incremental 
extractions, if it is provided then it can accept flowfiles or not.

> GetSplunk Processor should have input flow, which is currently missing

> Hi Team,
> We have found there is only 'GetSplunk' processor to connect and query to 
> Splunk in Apache NiFi.
> Hence, we this processor does not take any type or input.
>  
>  Do we have another type to Apache NiFi processor which can take parameters 
> as input (details of Splunk indexes, query, instance etc.) from other 
> processor?
> If not then please suggest when such type of processor can be expected in 
> upcoming release?
>  
> Environment: NiFi 1.5.0 and 1.6.0
