[jira] [Created] (NIFI-2579) Support accessing FlowFile content directly via expression language

Randy Gelhausen created NIFI-2579:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Support accessing FlowFile content directly via expression language
                 Key: NIFI-2579
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2579
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core Framework
            Reporter: Randy Gelhausen


If you want to use a FlowFile's content in routing logic, or in metadata for external APIs, you must use an ExtractText processor to pull the content into an attribute. This is confusing and seems extraneous- the natural inclination is to dive into expression language seeking the "content" property which doesn't exist today.
