> Provide prescriptive documentation for common tasks
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-7319
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-7319
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation & Website
> Affects Versions: 1.11.4
> Reporter: Andy LoPresto
> Assignee: Andy LoPresto
> Priority: Major
> Labels: community, configuration, documentation, flow_design,
> prescriptive_docs, security
> Time Spent: 9.5h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> There are a number of common tasks which community members frequently have
> trouble understanding and performing. Assisting users with these tasks
> requires a high level of knowledge, dedicated time and effort, and is often
> 1:1 rather than scalable.
> Existing NiFi documentation is descriptive (i.e. a compendium of reference
> material) but rarely _prescriptive_ (i.e. step-by-step guides to performing
> these tasks). I propose adding another document which collects these
> walkthrough instructions for representative tasks.
> Each section should include:
> * A brief description of the scenario
> * A brief description of why a user would undertake this action
> * A baseline starting point to ensure consistency
> * The expected outcome after completing these steps
> * Possible errors encountered or common mistakes called out
> * Detailed sequential actions to take
> ** Exact terminal commands or UI/API actions to take
> ** An explanation of each step
> ** Screenshots when possible
> ** Output/expected result for each step
> Example topics:
> # Configuring TLS for a standalone NiFi instance
> # Configuring TLS for a NiFi cluster
> # Configuring LDAP authentication & authorization for NiFi
> # Configuring Kerberos authentication & authorization for NiFi
> # Building a flow which uses the {{Wait}}/{{Notify}} processors
> # Building a flow which uses the {{*Record}} processors
> # Converting a legacy flow which used individual flowfile processing to use
> the {{*Record}} processors
> # Deploying NiFi on Kubernetes via Docker containers
> # Configuring TLS for NiFi Registry (and integrating with TLS NiFi)
> # Configuring LDAP authentication & authorization for NiFi Registry
