Nifi - Vault integration

[#1]

Hi, I'm trying to connect nifi instance to HashiCorp Vault. As per instructions, I added HashiCorpVaultParameterProvider and StandardHashiCorpVaultClientService to my instance. I configured both of them and managed to fetch secrets from Vault to nifi. Right after I fetched secrets I was asked to create respective nifi context to work with fetched secrets. I created one and used in a couple of my processor groups simply by selecting context in "Process Group Parameter Context" dropdown. Secrets were accessable inside processor groups and worked fine. Then I updated secrets on the Vault side, and according to instructions I should have refetched them again using "HashiCorpVaultParameterProvider" but fetch icon did nothing. So new secrets were not come. In order to achieve this I had to drop created context and all related references in process groups. Only after these actions I managed to fetch new secrets again. So, it looks wierd because every time when I update something on vault side I have to recreate contexts and reselect new context in each user group. Is it expected behaviour? Is there any other proper way to work dynamically with Vault? Thanks

What are you using Vault for specifically? Retrieving secrets for some other purpose? Anytime the built in processors don't or can't do what I need or want I've found scripted processors to be ideal.
