Description

ListSFTP supports listing of the supplied directory (Remote Path) out-of-the-box on the supplied "Hostname" using the 'Username" and 'Password" / "Private Key Passphrase".

The password can change at a regular interval (depending on organization policy) or the Hostname or the Remote Path can change based on some other requirement.

This is a case to allow ListSFTP to leverage the use of Nifi Expression language so that the values of Hostname, Password and/or Remote Path can be set based on the attributes of an incoming flow file.
