> When converting a flowfile containing an XLS file to CSV, the newly generated flowfiles do not inherit the attributes from the original one.
> Without the original flowfile's attributes, important information retrieved before conversion (for example, file metadata) cannot be used after the file is converted. I have attached 2 image files showing the attributes before and after conversion. Please note that the input file has a lot of metadata retrieved from Amazon S3 that does not exist on the new flowfile.
> I believe that like most other NiFi processors, the original attributes should be copied to new flowfiles.
