             Summary: ListenHTTP should expose property for the URL path to accept data on
                 Key: NIFI-747
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-747
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Extensions
            Reporter: Mark Payne
             Fix For: 0.3.0


When using ListenHTTP, you have to post to http(s)://<hostname>:<port>/contentListener

The /contentListener part is often problematic, as it's often mistyped and really serves no purpose, since the processor starts an embedded web server with only a single servlet.

We cannot remove the "/contentListener" path because we need to maintain backward compatibility. However, we can provide a new property to configure it, setting the default to "/contentListener". This way, when a user adds a ListenHTTP Processor, he/she can change the path to "/"
