Hello, I'm using a php script because the source requires an ssl connexion which is not the case with Nifi connexions. I've set up a listener (php file with secured connexion), and then once retrieved, the data is sent to Nifi ListenHTTP processor through POST request. The thing is i receive them with random names, i'll try to find out how i can parse them to rename them as JSON files instead of POST fields. Thanks for your help.
