Hello there and welcome to the nifi community.  There are some
processors available now that allow you to store values in distributed
(across the cluster) maps and to retrieve them.  And now within
processors there is the ability interact with state management
features built into the framework.  So the basic pieces are there.  I
would like to better understand the idea though because it may be even
more straight forward.

Where does the state or signal come from that would prompt you to
store a value away?  And is this source/signal separate from the feed
of data you'd like to tag with this value?

For example, we have the UpdateAttribute processor which can be used
to tag attributes onto flow files going by.  You can of course simply
call the rest api to change the tag being applied as needed and that
can be done by whatever the signal/source is potentially.

Thanks
Joe
