             Summary: Improve Copy/Paste in NiFi UI
                 Key: NIFI-13975
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-13975
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Core Framework, Core UI
            Reporter: Matt Gilman


NiFi currently relies on a server side resource to support copying and pasting. 
When the user copies components from the canvas, it issues a API call to create 
a new Snippet. Upon pasting the UI provides the Snippet identifier and the 
target Process Group. This works but could be improved.

If NiFi instead copied the flow contents to the system clipboard, the user 
would be able to more easily copy component configuration and paste flow 
snippets from a variety of sources including across different NiFi instances.
