Templates make it easier to reuse and distribute NiFi flows or specific parts of data
flows.
Besides reducing development time, reuse also supports the
adoption of standards and patterns in data flow design. Data flow templates can help you to
build a library of reusable elements that you can use as pre-built components in your new
flows. Templates can be made from any subset of a flow: a single processor, a flattened
subflow, or a process group holding a subflow. Alternatively, templates can be made from full
flows as well. For more in-depth information about using templates, see the Apache NiFi
User Guide.
