Brendan Buhr updated NIFI-11214:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
The Update Attribute Processor allows for Advanced conditional Rules to set 
attributes based on the result of the conditions.

The Conditions Allow for Expression Language on the Attributes of the Flow but 
the actions only accommodate hard-coded values. In some cases, you would like 
to set the action values based on parameter context values so that when a 
change happens you update the parameter and it updates everything linked to it 
without the need to update the updateAttribute process actions manually in the 
event of changes.

The value here is that values that have the potential to change and be 
parameters in the parameter context remove the need in the event of a change to 
manually track down where changes need to be applied manually and centralizing 
it when applicable
