How to do error handling for ListSFTP processor (eg. if it fails to connect to SFTP server due to any reason)? The only connection it shows is "Success".

@AnkushKoul

You would need to do this through some other monitoring flow.

When a NiFi components encounters a failure, it will produce a bulletin which correlates to an ERROR log entry. NiFi has a SiteToSIteBulletingReportingTask [1] which can be setup to send these produced bulletins over Site-To-Site (S2S) to another NiFi or this same NiFi as FlowFiles which can be parsed via a dataflow and notifications sent out via email.
