The following additional properties are displayed at Amazon Simple Queue Service queue providers:
•Connectivity test: when the queue provider’s current state is anything other than Unchanged, this button is disabled, and its text reads ‘Save this provider to test connectivity’.
When the provider is Unchanged, the button’s text is set to ‘Test Connectivity’. On clicking it, a ‘Test ‘[provider name]’ provider connectivity’ job is created and displayed in the My Jobs Dialog. Full details of the job can be found in that interface’s documentation.
•Access key: this property is required to connect to Amazon Web Services, and its provision is mandatory.
•Secret key: another property that is required to connect to Amazon Web Services; also mandatory.
•Region endpoint: this dropdown allows you to specify the endpoint that will be used to connect to Amazon Web Services. It is set by default to ‘US_East_Virginia’.
•Visibility timeout: this numeric property allows you to specify a period of time, in seconds, within which processing of a message will be prevented. It defaults to 300, and accepts a range of values from 0 to 43,200.
Note that queue names are case-sensitive at Amazon SQS queue providers. The value provided must exactly match the name of the queue as configured at Amazon, the realtime API web.config file and queue path system configuration settings.
