Sends serialized FlowFiles or Records over TCP to a configurable destination with optional support for TLS
| Display Name | API Name | Default Value | Allowable Values | Description |
|---|
| Hostname | Hostname | localhost | | Destination hostname or IP address
Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only) |
| Port | Port | | | Destination port number
Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only) |
| Max Size of Socket Send Buffer | Max Size of Socket Send Buffer | 1 MB | | The maximum size of the socket send buffer that should be used. This is a suggestion to the Operating System to indicate how big the socket buffer should be. If this value is set too low, the buffer may fill up before the data can be read, and incoming data will be dropped. |
| Idle Connection Expiration | Idle Connection Expiration | 15 seconds | | The amount of time a connection should be held open without being used before closing the connection. A value of 0 seconds will disable this feature.
Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only) |
| Timeout | Timeout | 10 seconds | | The timeout for connecting to and communicating with the destination. Does not apply to UDP
Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only) |
| Connection Per FlowFile | Connection Per FlowFile | false | | Specifies whether to send each FlowFile's content on an individual connection. |
| SSL Context Service | SSL Context Service | | Controller Service API:
SSLContextService
Implementations: StandardRestrictedSSLContextService
StandardSSLContextService | Specifies the SSL Context Service to enable TLS socket communication |
| Transmission Strategy | Transmission Strategy | FlowFile-oriented | - FlowFile-oriented
 - Record-oriented
| Specifies the strategy used for reading input FlowFiles and transmitting messages to the destination socket address |
| Outgoing Message Delimiter | Outgoing Message Delimiter | | | Specifies the delimiter to use when sending messages out over the same TCP stream. The delimiter is appended to each FlowFile message that is transmitted over the stream so that the receiver can determine when one message ends and the next message begins. Users should ensure that the FlowFile content does not contain the delimiter character to avoid errors. In order to use a new line character you can enter '\n'. For a tab character use '\t'. Finally for a carriage return use '\r'.
Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using flow file attributes and variable registry)
This Property is only considered if the [Transmission Strategy] Property has a value of "FlowFile-oriented". |
| Character Set | Character Set | UTF-8 | | Specifies the character set of the data being sent.
Supports Expression Language: true (will be evaluated using variable registry only)
This Property is only considered if the [Transmission Strategy] Property has a value of "FlowFile-oriented". |
