Pierre Villard updated NIFI-4916: --------------------------------- Assignee: Pierre Villard Status: Patch Available (was: Open) > Flowfiles created by ConvertExcelToCSVProcessor do not inherit attributes > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-4916 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4916 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Extensions > Affects Versions: 1.5.0 > Environment: NiFi 1.5.0 > Reporter: Fabio Coutinho > Assignee: Pierre Villard > Priority: Major > Attachments: ProvenanceCsvFlowFile.png, ProvenanceXlsFlowFile.png > > > When converting a flowfile containing an XLS file to CSV, the newly generated > flowfiles do not inherit the attributes from the original one. > Without the original flowfile's attributes, important information retrieved > before conversion (for example, file metadata) cannot be used after the file > is converted. I have attached 2 image files showing the attributes before and > after conversion. Please note that the input file has a lot of metadata > retrieved from Amazon S3 that does not exist on the new flowfile. > I believe that like most other NiFi processors, the original attributes > should be copied to new flowfiles. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
