>             Project: Apache NiFi
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Documentation & Website
>    Affects Versions: 1.1.1

> A co-worker (new to NiFi) spent a lot of time on this one. 
> Namely he was using *.zip a fileFilter in the UnpackContent processor.
> The docs in fact say
> > Only files whose names match the given regular expression will be extracted (tar/zip only)
> And it's not clear if it the flow file filename attribute of the file contained in the archive.
> As this is trivial, I think it should be included.
