@Avijeet Dash

did you try NiFi rest API https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/rest-api/

Hi @Rajkumar Singh,

what should be the steps?

1. lookup a template > what is id of a template?

/templates/{id}/download Exports a template

2. Deploy the template?

url?

3. start the process group? this works fine.
