From Kafka

From Kafka

With the workflow input type, From Kafka you can setup a workflow to read messages from Kafka.

The input type has these parameters:
  1. Bootstrap server host
    Specify the host name of the Kafka cluster bootstrap server (domain name or IP).
  2. Bootstrap server port
    Specify the port number of the bootstrap server (commonly 9092 or 9093).
  3. Topic name
    Specify the name of the topic that you want to subscribe to. The workflow will receive messages that are sent to this topic.
  4. Group ID
    Specify the name of the consumer group to which this workflow belongs. Workflows that share the same consumer group ID will receive a share of the messages sent to the topic.
  5. Input type
    Specify the data format of the incoming messages.
  6. Truststore path
    Specify the file system path of the truststore to use for SSL communication (only required when using a Kafka SSL endpoint).
  7. Truststore password
    Specify the password for the above truststore (only required if the truststore has a password).
  8. Keystore path
    Specify the file system path of the keystore to use for client authentication (only required when using a Kafka SSL endpoint that has client authentication enabled).
  9. Keystore password
    Specify the password of the above keystore (only required if the keystore has a password).
  10. Keystore key password
    Specify the password of the specific key within the keystore (if this is left empty, the keystore password will be used as key password as well).

Both JKS and PKCS12 keystore formats are supported. If the keystore filename has the extension ".p12" or ".pfx" then the keystore is assumed to be PKCS12. Any other extension will be assumed to be a JKS keystore
