ModifyCompression 2025.10.9.21¶
Bundle¶
org.apache.nifi | nifi-compress-nar
Description¶
Changes the compression algorithm used to compress the contents of a FlowFile by decompressing the contents of FlowFiles using a user-specified compression algorithm and recompressing the contents using the specified compression format properties. This processor operates in a very memory efficient way so very large objects well beyond the heap size are generally fine to process

Input Requirement¶
REQUIRED
Supports Sensitive Dynamic Properties¶
false
Properties¶
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Input Compression Strategy | The strategy to use for decompressing input FlowFiles |
| Output Compression Level | The compression level for output FlowFiles for supported formats. A lower value results in faster processing but less compression; a value of 0 indicates no (that is, simple archiving) for gzip or minimal for xz-lzma2 compression. Higher levels can mean much larger memory usage such as the case with levels 7-9 for xz-lzma/2 so be careful relative to heap size. |
| Output Compression Strategy | The strategy to use for compressing output FlowFiles |
| Output Filename Strategy | Processing strategy for filename attribute on output FlowFiles |
Relationships¶
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| failure | FlowFiles will be transferred to the failure relationship on compression modification errors |
| success | FlowFiles will be transferred to the success relationship on compression modification success |
Writes attributes¶
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| mime.type | The appropriate MIME Type is set based on the value of the Compression Format property. If the Compression Format is ‘no compression’ this attribute is removed as the MIME Type is no longer known. |
