HandleHttpRequest 2.3.0¶
BUNDLE¶
org.apache.nifi | nifi-standard-nar
DESCRIPTION¶
Starts an HTTP Server and listens for HTTP Requests. For each request, creates a FlowFile and transfers to ‘success’. This Processor is designed to be used in conjunction with the HandleHttpResponse Processor in order to create a Web Service. In case of a multipart request, one FlowFile is generated for each part.
INPUT REQUIREMENT¶
FORBIDDEN
Supports Sensitive Dynamic Properties¶
