Mohammad commented on NIFI-5149:
--------------------------------

Thank you for the feedback, [~aclowkey]!

I am having a similar challenge, so I'd like to elaborate the use case that 
[~bende] brought up: The processor has a query parameter, which is good if you 
have a 'permanent' query that you run regularly ['show me where disk=full'.] 
However, if I'd like to (for example) generate a list of queries, and 
dynamically execute them in Splunk _(which appears to be a popular use case)_, 
the processor does not support taking the output from a previous processor 
['disk=75%', 'disk=85%', 'disk=95%', ...], and setting it as a variable that I 
could use in the Query parameter when a queue is ready.

> GetSplunk Processor should have input flow, which is currently missing

> Hi Team,
> We have found there is only 'GetSplunk' processor to connect and query to 
> Splunk in Apache NiFi.
> Hence, we this processor does not take any type or input.
>  
>  Do we have another type to Apache NiFi processor which can take parameters 
> as input (details of Splunk indexes, query, instance etc.) from other 
> processor?
> If not then please suggest when such type of processor can be expected in 
> upcoming release?
>  
> Environment: NiFi 1.5.0 and 1.6.0
>  Brajendra Mishra
