When triggered, the processor loops through the appropriate response list (based on whether or not it received a FlowFile). A response is produced the configured number of times for each pass through its response list, as long as the processor is running.

Triggered by a FlowFile, the processor can produce the following responses.

  1. transfer FlowFile to success relationship.
  2. transfer FlowFile to failure relationship.
  3. rollback the FlowFile without penalty.
  4. rollback the FlowFile and yield the context.
  5. rollback the FlowFile with penalty.
  6. throw an exception.

Triggered without a FlowFile, the processor can produce the following responses.

  1. do nothing and return.
  2. throw an exception.
  3. yield the context.
