Description

When someone open nifi in browser withount putting path, sees:

 

Did you mean: /nifi
You may have mistyped... but we'll try to redirect you in 5 seconds.

This is helpfull, but are we supposed to wait 5 secunds? If we enter via browser i think info is not as neccecery to read it each time, and redirect should be instant. 

But if someone opens nifi via curl or something (for example trying to access to API) the info will be there anyway: they not run redirect.

I cannot find any valuable case when we should wait 5secund each time when we are too lazy to put /nifi at the end of url.

 

I think, redirect should be instantly.
