SQS Message Payload

The event received by the process is an object with a payload that represents the SQS message data.

Similar to other connectors, the message payload for SQS might be made accessible to the process as a process object of type $any.

For example, if the event target payload has plain text content with attributes, the payload looks similar to the following example:

{  
   "msg":{  
      "headers":[  
         {  
            "name":"attr1",
            "value":"attr1_val"
         },
         {  
            "name":"attr2",
            "value":"attr2_val"
         }
      ],
      "body":"some plain content"
   }
}

The event response would be similar to the following example:

<field name="sqsResponse">
         <root xmlns="">
            <MD5OfBody>fd6fb6b12324123fc8473fc7391cfdb3</MD5OfBody>
            <messageId>910aac08-e530-4afd-8f08-3868bd9d321f</messageId>
            <delaySeconds>0</delaySeconds>
         </root>
      </field>

If the target type is XML or JSON and you send an object in the body of the message payload, it appears similar to the following example:

{  
   "msg":{  
      "headers":[  
         {  
            "name":"attr1",
            "value":"attr1_val"
         },
         {  
            "name":"attr2",
            "value":"attr2_val"
         }
      ],
      "body":{  
         "key":"value"
      }
   }
}

If the payload is XML, the field name is the element name of the list.

If the payload is JSON, the array does not have a field name as defined by the payload and you can specify an Objectlist Name for the Event Source so that the implicit object field name can be set.
