Example

This example demonstrates how to use this Action Agent to publish temperature readings to an XMQ Listener in a different Data Stream. It is designed to work with the XMQ Listener Example.

Refer to configuration to understand all configuration options of this Agent.

Step 1: Add the Agent

Drag the XMQ Agent onto the canvas, link the input endpoint to the Event Simulator, and save the Data Stream.

Step 2: Configure General

Select the Agent and click Configure. Keep the default Collection.

Step 3: Configure Settings

Set the Identity to "AGENT 1", and set the Address to any port on the 127.0.0.1 host with the TCP protocol. This example uses tcp://127.0.0.1:3339.

Step 4: Configure Authentication

Tick the Use Authentication box, then click Generate Key. Once here, click the Generate New Key button. Then, select and copy the entire value, store it in a secure Variable or a temporary location for later use, then enter the value into the Server Key field.

Alternatively, if you have previously generated a Server Key that you wish to apply, enter it into the Server Key field. Please see the XMQ Listener example for a demonstration.
