Hi Shawn, NiFi 1.15.0 added configurable HTTP request logging, which is written to nifi-request.log. The default configuration logs the direct client IP address, but if the proxy server includes the real client address in a header, which could be added to the log.
The configuration property is named nifi.web.request.log.format described in the Administrator's Guide under Web Properties: https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/html/administration-guide.html#web-properties The following post covers the background on HTTP request logging and provides several configuration examples: https://exceptionfactory.com/posts/2022/04/26/introducing-apache-nifi-http-request-logging/ Feel free to follow up if you have additional questions.
