Hi Sir,

I am using apache nifi-2.0.0-M1 version. I am using window 10. I have some work. I need to export these task & import to production. But create template is missing.

Here is image of process group:

Hi @enam ,

The concept of templates has been removed in 2.0 per the following article:

https://medium.com/cloudera-inc/getting-ready-for-apache-nifi-2-0-5a5e6a67f450

You can either use the Nifi registry  to share files as the article suggest. You can also right click on a given process group and select Download Flow Definition which will save the process group in json format.

 

If that helps please accept solution.

Thanks

    @NifiEnjoyer 

    Welcome to the community.

    As this thread is related to the deprecation of NiFi templates in Apache NiFi 2 and an old thread, it would be better to start a new community question with your query about downloading and uploading flow definitions.  You'll want to include yoru source and destination Apache NiFi versions in your question details.  Fell free to @MattWho in your new  community question.

    Thank you,
    Matt

    It didn't take long, so I'll write it here. All you need is just start add process group, then click the browse button, select the json file and that's it. I hope this will be useful to someone
