             Summary: Retrieve multiple JSON Document Attributes from DynamoDB
                 Key: NIFI-7570
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-7570
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Extensions
    Affects Versions: 1.11.4
            Reporter: Andy LoPresto


Multiple users have requested the ability to retrieve multiple "JSON Document 
Attribute" values from AWS DynamoDB. Currently, the {{GetDynamoDB}} processor 
only allows the retrieval of a single document attribute during invocation. 

Possible avenues to implement this include a regex for selecting multiple JSON 
document attributes or a comma-separated enumerated list. The destination of 
the data is also a concern -- currently the response becomes the flowfile 
content. If multiple keys are queried, perhaps a nested JSON document would be 
returned into the flowfile content. Or a new processor {{GetDynamoDBRecord}} 
could be introduced which formats the response into NiFi record elements.
