The Kafka collection agent in a batch workflow
Kafka batch collection agent configuration
| Setting | Description | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Profile | The name of the profile as defined in the Kafka Profile dialog (select Kafka Profile after clicking the New Configuration button in the Desktop). | |||||
| All | If enabled, messages will be collected from all of the partitions. | |||||
| Range | If enabled, messages will be collected from the range that you specify. | |||||
| Specific | If enabled, messages will be collected from the specified partition(s). This is a comma separated list. | |||||
| Batch Size | Use this field to set the number of messages you want to have in each batch. If this field is set to 0, all messages will be collected in one batch.
| |||||
| Default Offset settings | The Kafka batch collection agent will collect the messages in sequence, and when the batch is finished the last number in the sequence will be the offset for the messages in the next batch. If the next message in sequence does not exist in the next batch for some reason, the Default Offset settings can be used to determine where the Kafka batch collection should start. | |||||
| Start at beginning | If you select this option, the agent will start collecting from the first message in the queue. | |||||
| Start at end | If you select this option, the agent will start collecting from the last message in the queue. This means that the workflow will not collect anything, but the offset will be updated to the last messages for the next run. |
