AMQP Agent

This section describes the AMQP agent. This is a collection agent for real-time workflow configurations.
The AMQP (Advanced Message Queuing Protocol) agent enables you to act as an AMQP client communicating with an AMQP broker.

Note!
The AMQP agent supports AMQP version 0-9-1 only. AMQP 1.0 is a different protocol that does not work with version 0-9-1, and the agent does not support it. Make sure your message broker accepts AMQP 0-9-1 connections, for example RabbitMQ.
