Hi @dhieru singh

The action should be seq = 0 and not $(getStateValue("seq")) = 0.

Hi @Abdelkrim Hadjidj

I tried the same the thing and what it does in the count attribute the value is not getting reset to 0. In fact when you check view state of Update attribute a new "count" attribute is being generated with its value 0 whereas the previous count attribute keeps on increasing whenever it receives a flow file. 11.jpg1.jpg2.jpg5.jpg6.jpg
