Property

Description

nifi.web.war.directory

This is the location of the web war directory. The default value is ./lib.

nifi.web.http.host

The HTTP host. It is blank by default.

nifi.web.http.port

The HTTP port. The default value is 8080.

nifi.web.http.port.forwarding

The port which forwards incoming HTTP requests to nifi.web.http.host. This property is designed to be used with 'port forwarding', when NiFi has to be started by a non-root user for better security, yet it needs to be accessed via low port to go through a firewall. For example, to expose NiFi via HTTP protocol on port 80, but actually listening on port 8080, you need to configure OS level port forwarding such as iptables (Linux/Unix) or pfctl (OS X) that redirects requests from 80 to 8080. Then set nifi.web.http.port as 8080, and nifi.web.http.port.forwarding as 80. It is blank by default.

nifi.web.http.network.interface*

The name of the network interface to which NiFi should bind for HTTP requests. It is blank by default.

NOTE: Multiple network interfaces can be specified by using the nifi.web.http.network.interface. prefix with unique suffixes and separate network interface names as values.

For example, to provide two additional network interfaces, a user could also specify additional properties with keys of:

nifi.web.http.network.interface.eth0=eth0

nifi.web.http.network.interface.eth1=eth1

Providing three total network interfaces, including nifi.web.http.network.interface.default.

nifi.web.https.host

The HTTPS host. It is blank by default.

nifi.web.https.port

The HTTPS port. It is blank by default. When configuring NiFi to run securely, this port should be configured.

nifi.web.https.port.forwarding

Same as nifi.web.http.port.forwarding, but with HTTPS for secure communication. It is blank by default.

nifi.web.https.network.interface*

The name of the network interface to which NiFi should bind for HTTPS requests. It is blank by default.

NOTE: Multiple network interfaces can be specified by using the nifi.web.https.network.interface. prefix with unique suffixes and separate network interface names as values.

For example, to provide two additional network interfaces, a user could also specify additional properties with keys of:

nifi.web.https.network.interface.eth0=eth0

nifi.web.https.network.interface.eth1=eth1

Providing three total network interfaces, including nifi.web.https.network.interface.default.

nifi.web.jetty.working.directory

The location of the Jetty working directory. The default value is ./work/jetty.

nifi.web.jetty.threads

The number of Jetty threads. The default value is 200.

nifi.web.max.header.size

The maximum size allowed for request and response headers. The default value is 16 KB.
