NiFi flow file expiry

avatar
Explorer

Hi,

 

Is there any way to set the flow file expiry time globally for all templates in a NiFi instance instead of going to each & every template and set the expiry time manually on the connections.

 

Thanks & Regards,
R.Rohit

I am not aware of any bulk update capability through the UI. At a glance I did not see this option yet via the API, so the following may be a reasonable workaround (disclaimer: I did not try something like this myself):

 

1. Export the process group in which you want to update all the queues (perhaps manually update 1 connection to see what it looks like)

2. Write a script to update all the connections in the template

 

This would still involve manual steps, but if you have a few groups with 100 queues it could save a lot of time. Also, don't hesitate to share if this indeed worked out.
