RabbitMQ Event Target Properties

When you create a RabbitMQ event target, you create a RabbitMQ producer to write RabbitMQ messages. You can use each RabbitMQ event target in a process that writes RabbitMQ messages.
For each RabbitMQ connection that you create, you can include one or more event targets that specify operations and call the event target from a process to send messages to a RabbitMQ exchange.
To create event targets for a RabbitMQ connection, click Add Event Target on the Event Targets tab. Select the event target type as RabbitMQ Writer.
The following table describes the basic event target properties that you can configure:
