Shane Ardell updated NIFI-10814: -------------------------------- Description: Right now, in the NiFi UI, when dragging and dropping a process group and selecting the Registry as the source, we never display the description that has been given when versioning the flow if referencing a flow outside of NiFi registry. Because of how the backend is currently implemented, a quick UI-only solution is to fetch the description on selection. In the future, an ideal solution would be to include the description in the summary endpoint return or create a new endpoint that returns all fully populated flows in order to display the description in the dropdown prior to selection. was: Right now, in the NiFi UI, when dragging and dropping a process group and selecting the Registry as the source, we never display the description that has been given when versioning the flow.
