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
