----------------------------------

             Summary: FetchElasticsearchHttp no longer accepts optional type
                 Key: NIFI-3140
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3140
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Matt Burgess
            Assignee: Matt Burgess
             Fix For: 1.2.0


In NiFi 1.1.0, if the Type property is omitted from the FetchElasticsearchHttp 
configuration (and a specific index is specified rather than _all), the 
processor fails with an error "400 Bad Request".

This is a result of FetchElasticsearchHttp URL building being aligned with 
those used in the Query/ScrollElasticsearchHttp processors (added in 
NIFI-2417). Unfortunately the REST API is not consistent between the Get and 
Search APIs.

For FetchElasticsearchHttp, the logic should be restored to insert a path 
segment of "_all" if the Type is not provided, and the Index property 
description should be reverted to not imply the use of "_all". Although it is 
possible to issue a successful Get against all indexes, it cannot have a type 
or document ID specified, and even then it does not return a document but 
instead a listing of indexes, which is inconsistent with the purpose of the 
processor.
