We’ve built custom, UI abstractions on top of Nifi using the REST API’s
exclusively. The API documentation is very good, and as people have suggested,
we became very effective at using the browser Developer console to understand
the REST calls in the native UI so we could better understand how and when
those API calls are made. Toggling back and forth between watching the
requests in the browser development console, and the API documentation was key
to making us effective at building our own UI’s. if you go down this path, you
quickly realize just how many API calls are made to perform very basic actions
in the native Nifi UI.

Hi Sunil,
Everything that the NiFi UI does is performed via a REST API [1]. You
could write your own front end that utilizes that API to perform operations.
There are also processors that contribute their own UI [2] so you could
potentially go down that road if you wanted.
Thanks,
Bryan
