[jira] [Commented] (NIFI-1372) Create ConvertAvroToCSV

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1372?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15162942#comment-15162942 ] 

Vincent Russell commented on NIFI-1372:
---------------------------------------

Do you think the Avro-To-CSV processor would require the user to provide a schema for the Avro?  I think this might be needed to generate to columns for the CSV.

> Currently there is no way to get from Avro to CSV. Certain processors like ExecuteSQL emit their results in the Avro format. While you can currently convert from Avro to JSON certain older systems will only accept CSV. Instead of adding the functionality to ExecuteSQL to emit CSV it makes sense to add a new processor that allows creating CSV from Avro in other places as well.
