SQS Connector
Properties Configuration Settings
The SQS Component provides access to Amazon's Simple Queue Service (SQS).
Remarks
The SQS Connector connects to Amazon's SQS service to download or upload messages in queues. SQS allows you to create globally accessible queues on Amazon's servers. These queues can be used by developers to transfer data between distributed application components, without losing messages or requiring each component to always be available. Please refer to Amazon SQS documentation for details.
To begin set AccessKey and SecretKey to the corresponding values for the AWS account. Queue specifies the existing queue to work with.
SQS Receive Connector
The SQS Receive Connector will download messages from the specified Queue. To delete messages after they are downloaded set DeleteMode to OnSuccess.
By default if messages are not deleted they may be returned in subsequent polling intervals if they are still present in the queue. To prevent duplicate messages from being downloaded even if they are still present in the SQS queue set DownloadCacheFile to a file on disk where information about downloaded message is stored. When DownloadCacheFile is specified the connector will check if the message has previously been downloaded, and will skip it if so.
Receive Example
Drag and drop the SQS Receiver Connector into the source position of a flow. Set the AccessKey and SecretKey to your AWS account credentials. Next, set the Queue property to the queue you want to receive messages from.
If you want to delete messages after downloading, set the DeleteMode property as desired.
SQS Send Connector
The SQS Send Connector uploads messages to the specified Queue. The SQS Send Connector is designed to be simple to use and requires only minimal configuration. Simply set Message to the SQS message content to be uploaded.
Send Example
Drag and drop the SQS Sender Connector into a flow. Set the AccessKey and SecretKey to your AWS account credentials. Next, set the Queue property to the queue you want to send messages to. Note that the queue must be created separately before the connector can send messages.
Finally, set the Message property to the contents of the message you want to send. When the connector is triggered by an incoming message, it will send the message to the queue.
