NIFI With UTF 8

avatar

Whats the compatibility of nifi with UTF8 , i read and saw some processors need flow files in UTF 8 but it wasnt clear that all processors work with UTF8 Flow files.

First i had trouble with the SpiltContent with UTF 8, when i was using text the content would not spilt then i changed it to hex and use 2bytes for each character and it worked.

after the splitContent i have TransformXML processor which is failing most likely because of UTF-8. is there a property we can specify which tells the processdor the content of slowfile is UTF8.

use convertCharacterSet to change UTF-8 to another, say UTF-16 or US-ASCII
