Azure Queue Storage Message is an orchestration component that lets you post a message to Azure Queue Storage. Other applications can read those messages and perform further processing. If the component requires access to a cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP), it will use credentials as follows:
  • If using Matillion Full SaaS: The component will use the cloud credentials associated with your environment to access resources.
  • If using Hybrid SaaS: By default the component will inherit the agent’s execution role (service account role). However, if there are cloud credentials associated to your environment, these will overwrite the role.
To use this component, your Azure account must have the role AQS Storage Queue Data Message Sender assigned. Read Assign Azure roles using the Azure portal in the Azure documentaiton for details.
