----------------------------------
Summary: ElasticsearchHttp processors should support dynamic
properties as query parameters
Key: NIFI-4218
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4218
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Extensions
Reporter: Matt Burgess
Priority: Minor
The Elasticsearch HTTP API has a number of fields that can be specified as
query parameters in the URL, such as support for
[pipelines|https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/ingest.html].
Rather than including all possibilities as processor properties, it might be
more flexible to allow the user to specify dynamic properties on
ElasticsearchHttp processors, and then use those to set query parameters on the
API URL.
Documentation should include a note that not all features are available to all
versions of Elasticsearch, and thus the ES documentation should be consulted
before adding dynamic properties. For example, pipelines were introduced in ES
5.x, so using pipeline parameters in an ElasticsearchHttp processor will not
work if connecting to an ES 2.x cluster.
