Creating a Kafka Write Adaptor
The Kafka Write Adaptor allows messages to be produced to a Kafka Topic.
In order to create a Kafka Write Adaptor, it is necessary to create a Kafka Connection.
- Create a new item via the create button in the graphs tab of the project home page.
- Select the Kafka Adaptor icon and give the adaptor a name.
Choose the connection from the drop down list in the Adaptor screen or edit it directly by clicking the pencil icon next to the connection name.
- Choose the data location of the data that will be written to the topic. This must be a schema location or a public variable.
