             Summary: Processor to tag an existing S3 object
                 Key: NIFI-5920
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5920
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Extensions
    Affects Versions: 1.9.0
            Reporter: Stephen Goodman
             Fix For: 1.9.0


A common use case for data aggregation projects is to use AWS S3 as data 
staging zone. Files are uploaded to S3 buckets from various sources, and NiFi 
is used to fetch the S3 objects and perform additional processing.

AWS S3 lifecycle management policies allow transitioning S3 objects from 
standard storage to glacier storage for cost savings in long-term storage. A 
lifecycle management rule can be set to transition an object that has a 
particular tag. 

Currently, the only way to tag an S3 object via NiFi is to through the 
PutS3Object processor. For the above use case, where an S3 object was uploaded 
by a second- or third-party, it would be very helpful to have a TagS3Processor 
that can tag an existing S3 object, so that the s3 lifecycle management policy 
can be triggered after NiFi has processed the S3 object.
