             Summary: Optional removal of fields with UpdateRecord
                 Key: NIFI-8498
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-8498
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Extensions
            Reporter: Peter Gyori
            Assignee: Peter Gyori


(Based on https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-8243)

Improve the UpdateRecord processor for field removal:
In case "Replacement Value Strategy" is set to "Record Path Value", allow the users to set the empty string as the value of the paths provided through dynamic properties. This would provide the capability to remove fields.

Example - *input*
{code:java}
{
  "foo": "value",
  "record": {
    "subrecord": {
      "key": "value"
    }
  }
}{code}
 

*Dynamic property: /record => <empty string>*

*Output*
{code:java}
{
  "foo": "value"
}{code}
