Daniel Stieglitz resolved NIFI-11577.
-------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
This is not an issue and is actually addressed in example 2 in the [additional
details|https://nifi.apache.org/components/org.apache.nifi.processors.standard.ValidateRecord/]
of the ValidateRecord processor. In the reporter's case, job_requisition per
the given schema is of type array but in the XML it can only be represented as
a single object. Hence it depends whether the property "Force Types From Reader
Schema" in ValidateRecord is set to true or false. If set to true then
job_requisition will be treated as an array and validation will pass yet if it
is set to false it will be treated as a single object and fail validation.
> ValidateRecord fails to validate XML record of record and attributes;
> ConvertRecord recognises just fine
