Hi all,
We using shell script/python using nipyapi (client for NIFI REST API) to set:
PG variable:
JOBID=<control-m ordered>
But we would better renaming things so our LogMessages prefix we use
${job_jobid} instead of PG var ${JOBID}:
JOBID:${job_jobid}||
Today for our surprise when we changed in python script to set a new PG var:
job_jobid
we got error:
Cannot update variable 'job_jobid' because it is referenced by LogMessage
Is this known/expected behaviour ? Im surprised enough to think this doesn't
make sense..
As workaround we could:
PG variables to be set externally - inputs for th eflow:
FLOW_JOBID
FLOW_BEGIN_DT
(xx)
Add UpdateAttribute processor to create attributes as copies of the respective
PG vars:
job_jobid= ${FLOW_JOBID}
job_begin_dt= ${FLOW_BEGIN_DT}
Thanks//Regards,
