--------------------------------------------
Hello [~ferdei],
This is not really working.
I tried downloading the flow and putting it into flow.json.raw but this also
does not work. As I wrote above the whole idea is that instead of downloading
template, now you should be able to download flow as json and use it. Now
templates are no longer available. And flow.json.gz contains all flows from the
whole nifi instance. Including the ones that intended to process requests from
minifi process group. So this is not really possible without manually creating
json from large complete nifi process flow.
But flow json that is getting downloaded from nifi UI has completely different
format. The one I have attached.
> Exported json flows does not match minifi json schema

> Key: NIFI-12644
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-12644
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: MiNiFi
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M1
> Reporter: Valiantsin Shukaila
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: flow-exported-from-nifi2.json,
> minifi-example-flow-from-tests.json
>
>
> In documentation for Minifi java agent project it is mentioned that in order
> to import process flow, now it is necessary to export nifi flow as json and
> put it in minifi. here link to doc:
> [https://github.com/apache/nifi/blob/main/minifi/minifi-docs/src/main/markdown/minifi-java-agent-quick-start.md]
> But in fact the JSON formats compeltelly do not match. Minifi expect format
> of legacy nifi flow templates just in JSON. But exported nifi flows is
> something very much different.
> Therefore it is not really possible to import flows from nifi-2.0 version to
> minifi 2.0 version.
> It is only possible to export template from nifi 1.2.x version and convert it
> into json format for minifi-2.0 version.
> for file differences please see attached files.
