Hello. Simpliest solution in my opinion, rather than trying to do that entirely in nifi, is to use an shell script and run it via ExecuteStreamCommand as an input for FetchFile.

If the flow doesn't run for a while, there may be multiple files found. My logic does not need to process the older files because the newest file always trumps the older ones, and older files can be discarded. Is there a way to filter the content of a queue this way?
