Hi Joe / all,

" we make it available via reporting tasks "

What reporting task is that? I've looked at NIFI 1 available reporting
tasks and I don't see anything that would let me export "flow configuration
history".
Coincidentally we are having to meet similar requirement.

Our solution was to get that through restAPI but if there is a cleaner way
though reporting tasks, would like to experiment with that too.
