             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.
