How to execute Linux bash command in Apache NiFi in Windows 10

I use NiFi on Windows 10 machine with installed Linux subsystem (Ubuntu). My task is to execute bash scripts and commands using NiFi. I tried to use ExecuteProcess and ExecuteStreamCommand with selected commands like simply 'bash' or 'bash ls' for test purposes, but all I got was:

ExecuteProcess[id=4f530725-0171-1000-d1b1-7df587eada7e] /bin/ls: /bin/ls: cannot execute binary file

If I try to pass basic Windows commands everything is OK.

Is there a way to run bash commands in my case?

I'm not a Windows user but according to the docs, in order to get to the Linux-style commands you have to run Bash.exe, so I'm guessing you'll need to specify -c as an argument followed by the Linux bash command you want to run (as a string), something like:

bash -c "ls"
