Koji Kawamura commented on NIFI-4169:
-------------------------------------

Yes, I was suggesting cloning each flowfile and set a single 
'websocket.session.id' attribute.
With this approach, user can route the failed FlowFiles back to PutWebSocket if 
necessary to retry sending the message to only the failed peers, without 
duplicating the same message to succeeded ones.

> PutWebSocket processor with blank WebSocket session id attribute cannot 
> transfer to failure queue

> If a PutWebSocket processor is setup with a blank WebSocket session id 
> attribute (see NIFI-3318; Send message from PutWebSocket to all connected 
> clients) and it is not connected to a websocket server it will log the 
> failure and mark the flowfile with Success (rather than Failure) -- and the 
> data is effectively lost.
> If there are multiple connected clients, and some succeed and others fail, 
> routing Failure back into the PutWebSocket could result in duplicate data to 
> some clients.
> Other NiFi processors seem to err on the side of "at least once".
