Uwe Geercken commented on NIFI-3608:
------------------------------------

Unfortunately not. If there is a header row, that is fine, I just don't think 
it should be populated to all flow files. It's an overhead in the following 
processors. I would recommend to at least make it configurable.

> SplitText should be configurable if header row is put in all splits

>             Project: Apache NiFi
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Extensions
>    Affects Versions: 1.1.1
>         Environment: Fedora 25
>            Reporter: Uwe Geercken

> The documentation for the SplitText processor states:
> "The number of lines that should be considered part of the header; the header 
> lines will be duplicated to all split files"
> There should be an option to turn off this behavior and to not output the 
> header row to each split file.
> When processing the splits further then the header row has to be handled in 
> each processor that follows which is unnecessary overhead.
> As an alternative one could think of assigning the details of the header row 
> to the flow file attributes
