Chris Sampson created NIFI-10865: ------------------------------------ Summary: Allow UpdateRecord to replace root fields with RecordPath unescapeJson output Key: NIFI-10865 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-10865 Project: Apache NiFi Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 1.18.0 Reporter: Chris Sampson
{{UpdateRecord}} currently cannot replace the root of a Record with the output of the {{unescapeJson}} RecordPath function. While a child Record within a Record can be "moved" to the top-level, e.g. {{/ => /child}}, this doesn't work if the RecordPath function is used, e.g. {{/ => unescapeJson(/stringified_child)}}. Rather than replacing the Record content with the output of the {{unescapeJson}} function, a {{root}} field is added to the input Record (i.e. with the name {{root}})) and the de-stringified content of the selected field(s) serialised in {{Map}} format. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
