Matt Burgess resolved NIFI-4140.
--------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Those processors are deprecated/removed and we have since upgraded the version
of Avro we use. Please feel free to reopen this case if necessary.
> InferAvroSchema and ConvertJSONToAvro struggle to handle attributes names
> containing dots

>
> Key: NIFI-4140
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4140
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0
> Reporter: Andre F de Miranda
> Priority: Major
>
> The AVRO documentation states:
> Primitive type names have no namespace and their names may not be defined in
> any namespace.
> https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.8.1/spec.html#names
> This means that a simple flow like:
> ListenSyslog (parsed) -> AttributesToJson -> ConvertJSONToAvro
> Cannot work.
> Instead the DFM must use ExecuteScript or UpdateAttribute or
> JoltTransformJSON to normalise the flow content prior to transform the data
> into AVRO records.
> It would be great to have out of the box functionality around this
