Ok, I understand now what you are doing. The problem is that you are trying to merge information from one FlowFile to another, and this can't be done in the way you designed. Two FlowFiles mean two separate processes, they don't communicate with one another.   You have to use one single FlowFile for the entire process if you need information from both the JSON and XML. I suggest putting the EvaluateXPath after the UpdateAttributes processor, setting the Destination property to "flowfile-attribute" in a way you will have all the attributes in the same flowfile (titlefromXML, guid, Contact Name, caseno, and docno) to use in the JOLT specification.   -- Was your question answered?
