Loaded template cache
Before I start up Nifi I removed all the _repository folders in order to remove any remnant data such as flow files in queues. One thing I notice that doesn’t get cleared up are old copies of the loaded templates. I have to use nifi’s api to do that. Is there place where the loaded templates data is being cached on the file system that could be cleaned up before start up?
Re: Loaded template cache
Hello, Templates belong to a process group so that they can be protected with the same access policies as the group they belong to. As a result, they are stored in flow.xml.gz inside their containing process group.

Can be safely removed before startup? Will it get regenerated?

Re: Loaded template cache
If you don’t care about your flow and are trying to start completely fresh then yes it can be removed. On Thu, Apr 16, 2020 at 5:20 PM William Gosse wrote: > Can be safely removed before startup?
