             Summary: Make it posssible to GenerateFlowFile without editing schedule
                 Key: NIFI-7704
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-7704
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Wish
    Affects Versions: 1.11.4
            Reporter: Alejandro Fiel Martínez


When we are developing/testing or a simple data refresh it's needed we launch a  flowfile via GenerateFlowFile, for this you have to:
 * Open the processor
 * go to schedule
 * change cron to time, set a time like 3600.
 * Apply changes
 * start and stop the processor
 * Open the processor
 * go to schedule
 * change time to cron (paste the cron you copied earlier)
 * apply changes
 * Start the processor

It will be nice to have something like "right click->generate FlowFile" or something like that to launch 1 batch of the configured flowfile to avoid the time and errors that could happen when following the previous steps.

 

thanks!
