It is used to set the scope of Expression language. More details as under:
https://static.javadoc.io/org.apache.nifi/nifi-api/1.7.0/org/apache/nifi/expression/ExpressionLanguageScope.html
> Indicates the scope of expression language on a property descriptor.
Scope of the expression language is hierarchical. NONE -> VARIABLE_REGISTRY ->
FLOWFILE_ATTRIBUTES When scope is set to FlowFiles attributes, variables are
evaluated against attributes of each incoming flow file. If no matching
attribute is found, variable registry will be checked. NONE - expression
language is not supported VARIABLE_REGISTRY is hierarchically constructed as
below: |---- Variables defined at process group level and then, recursively, up
| to the higher process group until the root process group. |--- Variables
defined in custom properties files through the |
nifi.variable.registry.properties property in nifi.properties file. |--
Environment variables defined at JVM level and system properties.
FLOWFILE_ATTRIBUTES - will check attributes of each individual flow file

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0
> Reporter: Soumya Shanta Ghosh
> Assignee: Peter Wicks
> Priority: Critical
>
> ListSFTP supports listing of the supplied directory (Remote Path)
> out-of-the-box on the supplied "Hostname" using the 'Username" and 'Password"
> / "Private Key Passphrase".
> The password can change at a regular interval (depending on organization
> policy) or the Hostname or the Remote Path can change based on some other
> requirement.
> This is a case to allow ListSFTP to leverage the use of Nifi Expression
> language so that the values of Hostname, Password and/or Remote Path can be
> set based on the attributes of an incoming flow file.
