If false, the Processor will use an "isolation level" of read_uncomitted. This means that messages will be received as soon as they are written to Kafka but will be pulled, even if the producer cancels the transactions. If this value is true, NiFi will not receive any messages for which the producer's transaction was canceled, but this can result in some latency since the consumer must wait for the producer to finish its entire transaction instead of pulling as the messages become available.</td></tr><tr><td id="name"><strong>Group ID</strong></td><td>group.id</td><td></td><td id="allowable-values"></td><td id="description">A Group ID is used to identify consumers that are within the same consumer group.

This is an optional property and if not provided each Kafka message received will result in a single FlowFile which time it is triggered.

This property indicates the Character Encoding to use for deserializing the headers.</td></tr><tr><td id="name">Headers to Add as Attributes (Regex)</td><td>header-name-regex</td><td></td><td id="allowable-values"></td><td id="description">A Regular Expression that is matched against all message headers. Any message header whose name matches the regex will be added to the FlowFile as an Attribute. If not specified, no Header values will be added as FlowFile attributes. If two messages have a different value for the same header and that header is selected by the provided regex, then those two messages must be added to different FlowFiles. As a result, users should be cautious about using a regex like ".*" if messages are expected to have header values that are unique per message, such as an identifier or timestamp, because it will prevent NiFi from bundling the messages together efficiently.</td></tr><tr><td id="name">Max Poll Records</td><td>max.poll.records</td><td id="default-value">10000</td><td id="allowable-values"></td><td id="description">Specifies the maximum number of records Kafka should return in a single poll.</td></tr><tr><td id="name">Max Uncommitted Time</td><td>max-uncommit-offset-wait</td><td id="default-value">1 secs</td><td id="allowable-values"></td><td id="description">Specifies the maximum amount of time allowed to pass before offsets must be committed. This value impacts how often offsets will be committed. Committing offsets less often increases throughput but also increases the window of potential data duplication in the event of a rebalance or JVM restart between commits. This value is also related to maximum poll records and the use of a message demarcator. When using a message demarcator we can have far more uncommitted messages than when we're not as there is much less for us to keep track of in memory.</td></tr></table><h3>Dynamic Properties: </h3><p>Supports Sensitive Dynamic Properties: <strong>No</strong></p><p>Dynamic Properties allow the user to specify both the name and value of a property.<table id="dynamic-properties"><tr><th>Name</th><th>Value</th><th>Description</th></tr><tr><td id="name">The name of a Kafka configuration property.</td><td id="value">The value of a given Kafka configuration property.</td><td>These properties will be added on the Kafka configuration after loading any provided configuration properties.
