PutHiveQL processor is used to:

Executes a HiveQL DDL/DML command (UPDATE, INSERT, e.g.). The content of an incoming FlowFile is expected to be the HiveQL command to execute.

If you want to insert data into hive table directly then use PutHiveStreaming processor instead of PutHiveQL.

Puthivestreaming processor expects the incoming data in AVRO format and table needs to Transactional enabled, so based on the KafkaConsumer format of data use ConvertRecord processor to Convert the source data into AVRO format then feed the Avro data into PutHiveStreaming processor.

Flow:

1.ConsumeKafka
2.ConvertRecord //convert the outgoing flowfile into AVRO format
3.PutHiveStreaming

Refer to this link for hive transactional tables and this link for ConvertRecord processor usage.
