MiNiFi is actually alive and well, we just moved it into the NiFi codebase. We’re actively developing a Command-and-Control (C2) capability to remotely update the flow on the agent for example.
You can configure MiNiFi agents for SSL over Site-to-Site in order to talk to secure NiFi instances. Not sure about the need for a user but you would need to present a certificate the same as you would for connecting to the NiFi UI. Some security features still need to be implemented (like encrypted properties maybe) but you should definitely be able to do what you’re trying to do with MiNiFi, happy to help with any issues you may run into.
