Writes the contents of a FlowFile to a samba network location. Use this processor instead of a cifs mounts if share access control is important.Configure the Hostname, Share and Directory accordingly: \\[Hostname]\[Share]\[path\to\Directory]

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hostname | The network host to which files should be written. | ||
| Share | The network share to which files should be written. This is the "first folder"after the hostname: \\hostname\[share]\dir1\dir2 | ||
| Directory | The network folder to which files should be written. This is the remaining relative path after the share: \\hostname\share\[dir1\dir2]. You may use expression language. Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry) | ||
| Domain | The domain used for authentication. Optional, in most cases username and password is sufficient. | ||
| Username | The username used for authentication. If no username is set then anonymous authentication is attempted. | ||
| Password | The password used for authentication. Required if Username is set. Sensitive Property: true | ||
| Create Missing Directories | false |
| If true, then missing destination directories will be created. If false, flowfiles are penalized and sent to failure. |
| Share Access Strategy | none |
| Indicates which shared access are granted on the file during the write. None is the most restrictive, but the safest setting to prevent corruption. |
| Conflict Resolution Strategy | replace |
| Indicates what should happen when a file with the same name already exists in the output directory |
| Batch Size | 100 | The maximum number of files to put in each iteration | |
| Temporary Suffix | A temporary suffix which will be apended to the filename while it's transfering. After the transfer is complete, the suffix will be removed. |
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| success | Files that have been successfully written to the output network path are transferred to this relationship |
| failure | Files that could not be written to the output network path for some reason are transferred to this relationship |
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| filename | The filename to use when writing the FlowFile to the network folder. |
