Once the flowfiles are finished, the contents are wipe out from memory, and can't be found in Repository.</P><P>In contrast, the File-based Content repository will keep the contents for flowfiles even out of the flow, based on the retention setting.</P><P>Thanks.</P> Mon, 21 Aug 2017 20:53:12 GMT alvinuw 2017-08-21T20:53:12Z
