Before using the AMQP
Consumer step, be aware of the following conditions:
- This step uses and requires the AMQP 0-9-1 messaging protocol.
- You must have an AMQP 0-9-1 compatible broker (such as RabbitMQ) available before you configure this step.
- Within a transformation, you can use the AMQP Consumer step alone to ingest messages from any AMQP producer or broker. The AMQP Producer step is not required. If you want to use both steps together (whether in the same or in a separate transformation), then some of the settings you specify in the Consumer step must match certain settings defined in the Producer step. The Tab sections below explain which settings must match.
- Although you can set up this step to work with an existing AMQP message queue, you can also use this step to create a new AMQP message queue. For more information, see Create a new AMQP Message Queue.
