------------------------------------------------------------------
Requesting for comment on pros, cons and security implication.
[~soumya.ghosh] Could you please provide a real life usecase for this feature?
can we go for a limited number of SFTP hosts? Opening this feature for all
hosts / unlimited unique sftp hosts could become a stepping stone for DDoS
attack.

> Key: NIFI-4621
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4621
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0
> Reporter: Soumya Shanta Ghosh
> Assignee: Puspendu Banerjee
> Priority: Critical
>
> ListSFTP supports listing of the supplied directory (Remote Path)
> out-of-the-box on the supplied "Hostname" using the 'Username" and 'Password"
> / "Private Key Passphrase".
> The password can change at a regular interval (depending on organization
> policy) or the Hostname or the Remote Path can change based on some other
> requirement.
> This is a case to allow ListSFTP to leverage the use of Nifi Expression
> language so that the values of Hostname, Password and/or Remote Path can be
> set based on the attributes of an incoming flow file.
