---------------------------------
Summary: UI - Unable save sensitive property value that equals
masked value
Key: NIFI-6587
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6587
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core UI
Reporter: Matt Gilman
Assignee: Matt Gilman
Fix For: 1.10.0
The NiFi Rest Api does not return sensitive values to the client. Instead it
returns a masked value of '********'. The front end code performs partial
updates and only sends properties that have been changed. The issue here is
that if the user types in a value of '********' that value is viewed as
unchanged and it is not included in the request to the server. Since sensitive
values are never returned to the client, the front end needs to maintain some
state to know when the property is modified and use this instead of relying on
the previous value.
