I have curl command as below.

curl -s -XPOST -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" -d 'username=usco&password=asdl2342&client_id=dwer234324-2sd2-32dwq&scope=read' 'https://rest.abc.com/security'

I am trying to replicate this in Nifi. I am trying to figure out how and where the above options to be provided in InvokeHTTP processor. I have gone through the articles and some mentioned I have to define it in body of flow file. But I couldn't understand what exactly goes into body and what goes into extra attributes (if I need to add) in InvokeHTTP processsor.

@RC

Here is what I think you should use to make this work:

-X POST	use processor HTTP method attribute and set to POST
-x http://proxyhost:port	I think you should consider adding this configuration or add properties Proxy host=proxyhost, Proxy port=port and Proxy protocol=https
-H "Accept: application/json"	Use the Attributes to send referencing a new attribute with the value (add 1 extra attributes with corresponding value)
-H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded"	Use Content type attribute
-d 'data sent'	Send Message Body = true. And the content should come as inbound flowfile to the processor. To test try adding a GenerateFlowFile processor with the content without single quotes
https://hostname/security/v1/oauth/token	Set in Remote url

Finally since endpoint is ssl enabled you need to set SSL Context Service.
