PutElasticsearchHttpRecord

Deprecation notice:

This processor is deprecated and may be removed in future releases.

Please consider using one the following alternatives: PutElasticsearchRecord

Description:

Writes the records from a FlowFile into to Elasticsearch, using the specified parameters such as the index to insert into and the type of the document, as well as the operation type (index, upsert, delete, etc.). Note: The Bulk API is used to send the records. This means that the entire contents of the incoming flow file are read into memory, and each record is transformed into a JSON document which is added to a single HTTP request body. For very large flow files (files with a large number of records, e.g.), this could cause memory usage issues.

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 NiFi Expression Language, 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
Elasticsearch URL			Elasticsearch URL which will be connected to, including scheme (http, e.g.), host, and port. The default port for the REST API is 9200. Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
SSL Context Service		Controller Service API: SSLContextService Implementations: StandardSSLContextService StandardRestrictedSSLContextService	The SSL Context Service used to provide client certificate information for TLS/SSL connections. This service only applies if the Elasticsearch endpoint(s) have been secured with TLS/SSL.
Character Set	UTF-8		Specifies the character set of the document data. Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
Username			Username to access the Elasticsearch cluster Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
Password			Password to access the Elasticsearch cluster Sensitive Property: true Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
Connection Timeout	5 secs		Max wait time for the connection to the Elasticsearch REST API. Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
Response Timeout	15 secs		Max wait time for a response from the Elasticsearch REST API. Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
Proxy Configuration Service		Controller Service API: ProxyConfigurationService Implementation: StandardProxyConfigurationService	Specifies the Proxy Configuration Controller Service to proxy network requests. If set, it supersedes proxy settings configured per component. Supported proxies: HTTP + AuthN, SOCKS
Proxy Host			The fully qualified hostname or IP address of the proxy server Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
Proxy Port			The port of the proxy server Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
Proxy Username			Proxy Username Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
Proxy Password			Proxy Password Sensitive Property: true Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
Record Reader		Controller Service API: RecordReaderFactory Implementations: JsonPathReader AvroReader XMLReader WindowsEventLogReader ReaderLookup Syslog5424Reader GrokReader ScriptedReader CSVReader SyslogReader ParquetReader JsonTreeReader CEFReader	Specifies the Controller Service to use for parsing incoming data and determining the data's schema.
Record Writer		Controller Service API: RecordSetWriterFactory Implementations: AvroRecordSetWriter ScriptedRecordSetWriter JsonRecordSetWriter ParquetRecordSetWriter RecordSetWriterLookup FreeFormTextRecordSetWriter XMLRecordSetWriter CSVRecordSetWriter	After sending a batch of records, Elasticsearch will report if individual records failed to insert. As an example, this can happen if the record doesn't match the mappingfor the index it is being inserted into. This property specifies the Controller Service to use for writing out those individual records sent to 'failure'. If this is not set, then the whole FlowFile will be routed to failure (including any records which may have been inserted successfully). Note that this will only be used if Elasticsearch reports that individual records failed and that in the event that the entire FlowFile fails (e.g. in the event ES is down), the FF will be routed to failure without being interpreted by this record writer. If there is an error while attempting to route the failures, the entire FlowFile will be routed to Failure. Also if every record failed individually, the entire FlowFile will be routed to Failure without being parsed by the writer.
Log all errors in batch	false	true false	After sending a batch of records, Elasticsearch will report if individual records failed to insert. As an example, this can happen if the record doesn't match the mapping for the index it is being inserted into. If this is set to true, the processor will log the failure reason for the every failed record. When set to false only the first error in the batch will be logged.
Identifier Record Path			A RecordPath pointing to a field in the record(s) that contains the identifier for the document. If the Index Operation is "index" or "create", this property may be left empty or evaluate to an empty value, in which case the document's identifier will be auto-generated by Elasticsearch. For all other Index Operations, the field's value must be non-empty. Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
@timestamp Record Path			A RecordPath pointing to a field in the record(s) that contains the @timestamp for the document. If left blank the @timestamp will be determined using the main @timestamp property Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
@timestamp Value			The value to use as the @timestamp field (required for Elasticsearch Data Streams) Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
Index			The name of the index to insert into Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
Type			The type of this document (required by Elasticsearch versions < 7.0 for indexing and searching). This must be unset or '_doc' for Elasticsearch 7.0+. Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
Index Operation	index		The type of the operation used to index (create, index, update, upsert, delete) Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
Suppress Null Values	never-suppress	Never Suppress Always Suppress Suppress Missing Values	Specifies how the writer should handle a null field
Date Format			Specifies the format to use when reading/writing Date fields. If not specified, the default format 'yyyy-MM-dd' is used. If specified, the value must match the Java Simple Date Format (for example, MM/dd/yyyy for a two-digit month, followed by a two-digit day, followed by a four-digit year, all separated by '/' characters, as in 01/25/2017). Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
Time Format			Specifies the format to use when reading/writing Time fields. If not specified, the default format 'HH:mm:ss' is used. If specified, the value must match the Java Simple Date Format (for example, HH:mm:ss for a two-digit hour in 24-hour format, followed by a two-digit minute, followed by a two-digit second, all separated by ':' characters, as in 18:04:15). Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
Timestamp Format			Specifies the format to use when reading/writing Timestamp fields. If not specified, the default format 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss' is used. If specified, the value must match the Java Simple Date Format (for example, MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss for a two-digit month, followed by a two-digit day, followed by a four-digit year, all separated by '/' characters; and then followed by a two-digit hour in 24-hour format, followed by a two-digit minute, followed by a two-digit second, all separated by ':' characters, as in 01/25/2017 18:04:15). Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
