> Hi,
> We are trying to replace our existing oozie workflows with falcon. But then we are facing few issues with falcon which is a roadblock for us to move from Oozie to Falcon. Apart from that Falcon has everything which a Oozie can do. Here are few of our findings:
> 1. In Oozie workflows we call a shell script and with the values we get from our scripts (like timestamp, date, latest folder, partition and many more) we retrieve those values using ${wf:actionData('<SCRIPT NAME>')['<VALUE ECHOED FROM SHELL SCRIPT>']} command and then pass them to subsequent pig scripts or hive or MRs. 
> 2. Please bring in different actions in Falcon for mailing and more features in Oozie so that Falcon can completely replace Oozie.
