Properties:

In the list below, the names of required properties appear in bold. Any other properties (not in bold) are considered optional. The table also indicates any default values, whether a property supports the Expression Language Guide, and whether a property is considered “sensitive”, meaning that its value will be encrypted. Before entering a value in a sensitive property, ensure that the nifi.properties file has an entry for the property nifi.sensitive.props.key.

Name

Default Value

Allowable Values

Description

Container Name

Name of the Azure storage container

Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)


SAS Token Shared Access Signature token, including the leading '?'. Specify either SAS Token (recommended) or Account Key. There are certain risks in allowing the SAS token to be stored as a flowfile attribute. While it does provide for a more flexible flow by allowing the account name to be fetched dynamically from a flowfile attribute, care must be taken to restrict access to the event provenance data (e.g. by strictly controlling the policies governing provenance for this Processor). In addition, the provenance repositories may be put on encrypted disk partitions.

Sensitive Property: true


Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)


Storage Account Name

The storage account name. There are certain risks in allowing the account name to be stored as a flowfile attribute. While it does provide for a more flexible flow by allowing the account name to be fetched dynamically from a flowfile attribute, care must be taken to restrict access to the event provenance data (e.g. by strictly controlling the policies governing provenance for this Processor). In addition, the provenance repositories may be put on encrypted disk partitions.

Sensitive Property: true


Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)


Storage Account Key The storage account key. This is an admin-like password providing access to every container in this account. It is recommended one uses Shared Access Signature (SAS) token instead for fine-grained control with policies. There are certain risks in allowing the account key to be stored as a flowfile attribute. While it does provide for a more flexible flow by allowing the account key to be fetched dynamically from a flow file attribute, care must be taken to restrict access to the event provenance data (e.g. by strictly controlling the policies governing provenance for this Processor). In addition, the provenance repositories may be put on encrypted disk partitions.

Sensitive Property: true


Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)


Blob

${azure.blobname} The filename of the blob

Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
