> Key: NIFI-4916
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4916
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0
> Environment: NiFi 1.5.0
> Reporter: Fabio Coutinho
> Assignee: Pierre Villard
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: ProvenanceCsvFlowFile.png, ProvenanceXlsFlowFile.png

>
> When converting a flowfile containing an XLS file to CSV, the newly generated
> flowfiles do not inherit the attributes from the original one.
> Without the original flowfile's attributes, important information retrieved
> before conversion (for example, file metadata) cannot be used after the file
> is converted. I have attached 2 image files showing the attributes before and
> after conversion. Please note that the input file has a lot of metadata
> retrieved from Amazon S3 that does not exist on the new flowfile.
> I believe that like most other NiFi processors, the original attributes
> should be copied to new flowfiles.
