Processor Id As Attribute

Hello,

Is there a way using expression language to get current processors id or
something similar?
I found a jira ticket related to
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4284.

Thank you
Noe

Hi Noe,

No, this isn’t supported. Can you maybe explain your intended use case a bit? In general, the flowfiles are “unaware” of the processors operating on them. Some processors write attributes to the flowfile but these are metadata about the flowfile and its content, not usually about the processor that performed the action.
