NiFi: PutHiveQL reflect UDF not working

[#1]

For a simple reflect function as below which works in HIVE shell, cannot be executed through PutHiveQL processor. Do you know if this is an expected behavior?

SELECT reflect("java.util.UUID", "nameUUIDFromBytes", "test") from dual

One needs to allow for a reflect function, it's blacklisted by default. See e.g. this discussion: https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/25828/udf-reflect-is-not-allowed-beeline.html
