Andrew Grande commented on NIFI-3010:
-------------------------------------
Hi, here's the use case we'd like the transformer to support in simpler terms.
* FlowFile content is a JSON document
* JOLT transformer runs a spec to shape it into another JSON structure
* JOLT specification has some expression to reference the *FlowFile* attribute
and value, which is made part of the JSON structure. I.e. we are 'merging in'
the contextual information from FF with the JSON while still treating
everything as a structured document.
> Add expression language support for JoltTransformJson processor
