eric twilegar created NIFI-5270:
-----------------------------------
Summary: my ftp password is "${password}" so nifi's LISTFtp won't
use it.
Key: NIFI-5270
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5270
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: eric twilegar
I'm joking of course, but if that was your password the processor would fail as
it would consider it an expression and not a password.
In all seriousness though we really do something like "isPasswordExpression"
checkbox for all controllers. This would also allow nifi registry to not
consider them secrets and so you don't have to cut and paste ${ftp_password}
after deploying a version. Maybe just adding passwordExpression vs sharing the
property is a better idea.
I didn't test whether you can escape the password in someway, so there is a
chance this isn't a bug.
