Thanks Mike. That's what I thought. I'd rather not have to customize the
processors for this. What about the new variables feature? Is there a
way to update variables through the API?

Scott,
The "input requirement" is hard-coded into the processor. Not knowing
much about your use case, I'd say you're either going to have to get
really creative or ask for some changes.
Thanks,
Mike

Hello community,
I'm looking at using an external table that would be used to
configure various NiFi flows by reading the columns from the table
and converting them into attributes. The idea breaks down with
some processors that do not allow an incoming relationship, such
as ListSFTP, so I can't use attributes to control them. Is there
any way around this, short of modifying the processor code and
creating a new custom processor? Is there a way to convert the
records from the table into variables instead?
Thanks for any help,
Scott
