Configure a MSMQ connection

You can configure a Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ) connection in the API Connection Manager.

This allows you to connect to an MSMQ queue and to push and pull messages. For detailed information on MSMQ, see the MSMQ documentation.

Configure your connection

To configure a MSMQ connection, follow the steps below:

  1. Open the API Connection Manager.

  2. Add a new connection.

  3. Go to the Edit section.

  1. Specify a Name for your connection.

  2. From the Type drop-down menu, select MSMQ.

  3. Specify the Path to the queue. Use the name of the machine that stores the queue messages and the name of the queue as follows:

    • For public queues, specify the path in this format: machine\queue.

    • For private queues, specify the path in this format: machine\private$\queue.

  4. Optionally, enable Peeking to retrieve messages from queues without consuming them.

  5. If your connection requires authentication, enter your Username and Password if required.

  6. Optionally, configure XML and web service security.
