Configuring an Event Hub receiver

When you configure an event hub receiver, you are telling Infor Process Automation how to handle the file data that comes in from a particular event hub channel.

  1. With the channel for which you want to configure a receiver selected, click Actions > Create.
  2. Specify this information:
    Channel Name

    This field is pre-populated based on the channel for which you are configuring a receiver.

    Receiver

    Assign a name to the receiver. This can be anything you want it to be and can include numbers and special characters. Use a name that reflects the purpose of the receiver.

    Description

    Optional. Assign a description that provides some detail about what the receiver is used for.

    Subscription

    The event that the receiver is listening for that will trigger the process. This is a string that has the format: publisher:document:event

    The following event specifies create and update operations on the Infor M3 item master.

    The following event specifies any operation on Infor M3 purchase order headers.
