Here is an article on how to start a processor group by rest api

For you first question, if you are looking to update the processor configuration please review:

https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/rest-api/index.html

PUT /processor/{id}

Actually, i m not updating the processor configuration. I want to get the file path form the url which is being used to start the processor like (http://localhost:9090/nifi-api/flow/search-results?q=FileGetter&restoftheurl=http://localhost:8080/file/file.php). I am new to the nifi so using curl instead of direct URL didn't work either. If you could help me in simple way, it would be appreciable.

Thanks
