The pairing of this Processor with a HandleHttpResponse Processor provides the ability to use NiFi to visually construct a web server that can carry out any functionality that is available through the existing Processors. For example, one could construct a Web-based front end to an SFTP Server by constructing a flow such as:
HandleHttpRequest -> PutSFTP -> HandleHttpResponse
The HandleHttpRequest Processor provides several Properties to configure which methods are supported, the paths that are supported, and SSL configuration.
