------------------------------------------------------------
The behaviour I'm seeing now isn't what I remember, so my original description may not be
accurate, but I think the following should illustrate the problem.
I want to be able to set the 'Elasticsearch URL' property dynamically from an atttribute.
Assume I have an attribute set as follows, es_host = http://<my_es_server>. Then if
I set
'Elasticsearch URL' = ${es_host} then what I get is
!screenshot-1.png!
I also tried it with es_host = <my_es_server> and 'Elasticsearch URL' = http://${es_host}
and what I get is
!screenshot-2.png!

> PutElasticsearchHttp Processor: Elasticsearch URL property isn't expanding nifi language
expressions
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-4397
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4397
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core Framework
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0
> Reporter: Joe Warner
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: screenshot-1.png, screenshot-2.png
>
>
> Despite the documentation saying that the PutElasticsearchHttp processor should support
expression language this isn't happening. The Index property works correctly however. The
property validates whether the value looks like a URL. But it seems like this validation is
taking place before the expression is evaluated. Also, expressions like 'http://${url}' still
are not evaluated.
> Technically I guess this isn't a 'major' issue, but it is quite painful to use it without
the replacement happening. See also NIFI-4396 which is very similar behaviour.
