             Summary: Auto-Incremental For GetFTP processor 
                 Key: NIFI-4000
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4000
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Extensions
    Affects Versions: 1.1.1
         Environment: linux
            Reporter: YANGFEIRAN


Hello, 
I am a NIFI user. When I am using the GetFTP processor, I realized that the 
processor can auto-incrementally import files from FTP only if I configure the 
processor "Delete Original" as "true". 
However, sometimes it is forbidden for me to delete any file in the FTP. So, I 
added a property in the GetFTP and  GetFileTransfer processor in order to 
record the last-modified time for files I have imported. And next time this 
value can be used to filter out those files that I have imported. Never the 
less, if I restart the NIFI, this value will be set back to the beginning. 
I figured out that if I wanted to make it stay still even if NIFI is restarted, 
I have to set this property back to the processor, as those properties in the 
UI. But there is no such a set function, those properties as initialized as the 
processor init. 
Can anyone add a set function, so the property in the UI can change as the 
processor is running? Or it is only me that missing something that can achieve 
this?

Best regards,

Feiran
