NiFi Decompress Content after ListenHTTP

[#1]

Here is my workflow

Data-->CompressContent(gzip, level 2) --> PostHTTP which post to the ListenHTTP endpoint

ListenHTTP-->CompressContent(gzip, level 2, for decompression) --> put file

For decompression i set compression format to gzip and level 2. However when I look at the file post decompression it is still compressed. any ideas?

By the way, I tested the CompressContent process by doing this

Data --> CompressContent(gzip, level 2) --> (forDemcompress)CompressContent(gzip, level 2), and in both stages it compresses the data and decompresses with success. This seems to be issue around ListenHTTP into CompressContent for decompression.

OK I found what i was doing wrong. The posthttp processor has a compressionLevel attribute. If you set this value to > 0 it will compress the content as gzip. So no reason to compress prior to using posthttp if you are using gzip
