Hello Naveen,

Simply encrypting only certain parts of a text file is a use-case I hadn't 
thought of before. It could potentially be added as an option to the 
ReplaceText processor.

That being said, what is the end-goal of encrypting certain elements of the 
flowfile content and why do you not want to encrypt the whole thing? Are you 
expecting to encrypt the certain elements of the JSON contents and un-encrypt 
them at a later point (in nifi or otherwise)? Keeping in mind that would 
require keeping track what password was used to encrypt every single flowfile.

I can see the usefulness but just trying to see if that's the solution you 
really want (a feature not easily if at all supported now) or if there is a 
work around to meet your end-goal.

Joe

Hi,

My requirement is to encrypt only selected elements of the JSON flow file. I 
was thinking of adding those selected elements into attributes and encrypt 
those.

Is there a way to encrypt specific/sensitive elements of the flow file instead 
of the whole flow file?


Thanks,
Naveen
