Mark Payne created NIFI-993: ------------------------------- Summary: GetHTTP should allow the Expression Language to be used for the URL property Key: NIFI-993 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-993 Project: Apache NiFi Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Mark Payne Priority: Minor Fix For: 0.4.0
Currently, the GetHTTP Processor does not allow the Expression Language to be used for the URL property. This was done because it is a Source Processor and doesn't have any FlowFiles' attributes to evaluate. However, a very valid use cause would be to reference functions like now(), hostname(), etc. or to reference system properties. We should allow the Expression Language to be used for this purpose. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
