Hello Bryan,

Thank you very much for your response.

Is it possible to have customized flume source and sink in Nifi?
I have my own customized source and sink? I followed below steps to add my
own customized source but it did not work.

1) Created Maven project and added customized source. (flume.jar was
created after this step)
2) Added flume.jar file to nifi-0.3.0/lib folder.
3) Added flume source processor with the below configuration

Property           Value
Source Type         com.flume.source.Source
Agent Name      a1
Source Name         k1.

But I am getting the below error in Flume Source Processor.
"Failed to run validation due to java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError :
/org/apache/flume/PollableSource."

Can you please help me in this regard. Any step/configuration I missed.

Thanks and Regards,
Parul
