-----------------------------------
Summary: Update ListenHTTP processor documentation
Key: NIFI-3114
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3114
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation & Website
Affects Versions: 1.1.0
Reporter: Andy LoPresto
The processor documentation for
[{{ListenHTTP}}|https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/components/org.apache.nifi.processors.standard.ListenHTTP/index.html]
describes it as
bq. Starts an HTTP Server that is used to receive FlowFiles from remote
sources.
# the wording implies that users should use this processor for communication
between NiFi instances, when [Site to
Site|https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/html/user-guide.html#site-to-site]
offers a more compelling and robust inter-NiFi communication platform.
# the documentation makes no mention that only the {{POST}} and {{HEAD}} HTTP
methods are supported, while {{GET}}, {{PUT}}, and {{DELETE}} will result in a
error and the HTTP response status code {{405}}.
