Prerequisites for Creating a Connection

You must satisfy the following prerequisites to create a connection with the RabbitMQ Adapter:

  • Know the host name. The host name is essentially the server where RabbitMQ is hosted along with the management port (SSL-enabled).

    Note:

    • The RabbitMQ Adapter only supports the HTTPS port.
    • Port number requirements:
      • Specifying the management port number in the host name field is mandatory, except when using port 443.
      • Enter the host name as host_name:management:port without HTTPS.

      Example: test.rabbitmq.com:15671 (instead of https://test.rabbitmq.com:15671)

  • Locate the virtual host (vHost) or user name.
    1. In the RabbitMQ Management Console, navigate to the Admin tab.
    2. In the Virtual Hosts section, find the list of all available virtual hosts.
  • Ensure you know the password. When a new user is created using rabbitmqctl, the password is combined with a salt value and hashed.
