Daniel Stieglitz commented on NIFI-15501:
-----------------------------------------

[~_mark_] Have you tried configuring the ModifyCompression processor with the 
Input Compression Strategy set with value "use mime.type attribute"? Per the 
[NIFI 
docs|https://nifi.apache.org/components/org.apache.nifi.processors.compress.ModifyCompression/]
 it seems that is the feature you are looking for.

> ModifyCompression should route incoming uncompressed FlowFile appropriately 
> when Input Compression Strategy is 'use mime type attribute'

> ModifyCompression replaces the deprecated (as of 2,6.0) CompressContent.
> CompressContent had a useful feature, the documentation explains:
> {quote}A common idiom is to precede CompressContent with IdentifyMimeType and 
> configure Mode='decompress' AND Compression Format='use mime.type attribute'. 
> When used in this manner, the MIME type is automatically detected and the 
> data is decompressed, if necessary. If decompression is unnecessary, the data 
> is passed through to the 'success' relationship.
> {quote}
> In contrast, ModifyCompression does not behave this way, instead routing 
> FlowFiles to the failure relationship (note this does not raise an 
> error/bulletin).
> Can the ModifyCompression be modified to optionally include similar 
> behaviour.  Perhaps routing files to a separate queue if user transparency is 
> is of high importance.
