> Notify doesn't emit any provenance event because it doesn't do any update 
> operation with incoming FlowFiles. There are other processors those don't 
> create any provenance (e.g. LogAttribute), and those are probably fine, but 
> since Notify can be an important part of controlling flow, it's easy to 
> imagine users to search data provenance event for Notify.
> Then, which provenance event does suit what Notify does? I looked at 
> PutDistributedMapCache processor. PutDistributedMapCache writes an attribute 
> named 'cached' as true when it updates cache. I think Notify can use the same 
> approach to create provenance events by adding 'notified' true attribute 
> value, as it does the same thing with PutDistributedMapCache in terms of 
> updating an entry in distributed cache.
