Github user MikeThomsen commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/2113 @JPercivall I just got done testing it w/ X-Pack for SSL and u/p auth based on Elastic docs. Everything was in working order there. [Steps if you want to validate](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.2/configuring-tls.html) I also added the documentation there. Sorry about that. AFAIK, that warning is going to be more of a polite warning than a real "here be dragons" sort of thing because IIRC ES limits you to 10k results unless you explicitly up the number in the index configuration. Probably a good reminder, but I doubt anyone is going to blow up their NiFi installation without having to take deliberate steps to facilitate that.
