If you haven't already done so, install NiFi.

NiFi is built to automate the flow of data between systems. As a result, NiFi works well to collect, ingest, and push data to HCP.

	Important
	NiFi cannot be installed on top of HDP, so you must install NiFi manually to use it with HCP.

	Note
	Ensure that the NiFi web application is using port 8089. The port number is stored in /usr/lib/nifi<version number>/conf/nifi.properties.
