Hi Bryan

So we implemented it based on your suggestion, and it works, however, for 
concerns unrelated to NiFi  from the team, I  will need to go back to the 
original idea which is standup  a servlet from within my .nar file.

Is it possible and if so can you point me to an example?

Thank you, 

Vijay
