Examples

Sending a message with additional properties


   message = ServiceBusMessage(
       "Hello World!!",
       session_id="MySessionID",
       application_properties={'data': 'custom_data'},
       time_to_live=datetime.timedelta(seconds=30),
       label='MyLabel'
   )

Attributes

application_properties

The user defined properties on the message.

Return type

body

The body of the Message. The format may vary depending on the body type: For DATA, the body could be bytes or Iterable[bytes]. For SEQUENCE, the body could be List or Iterable[List]. For VALUE, the body could be any type.

Return type

<xref:Any>

body_type

The body type of the underlying AMQP message.

Return type

content_type

The content type descriptor.

Optionally describes the payload of the message, with a descriptor following the format of RFC2045, Section 5, for example "application/json".

Return type

str

correlation_id

The correlation identifier.

Allows an application to specify a context for the message for the purposes of correlation, for example reflecting the MessageId of a message that is being replied to.

See Message Routing and Correlation in https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/service-bus-messaging/service-bus-messages-payloads?#message-routing-and-correlation.

Return type

str

message_id

The id to identify the message.

The message identifier is an application-defined value that uniquely identifies the message and its payload. The identifier is a free-form string and can reflect a GUID or an identifier derived from the application context. If enabled, the duplicate detection (see https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/service-bus-messaging/duplicate-detection) feature identifies and removes second and further submissions of messages with the same message id.

Return type

str

partition_key

The partition key for sending a message to a partitioned entity.

Setting this value enables assigning related messages to the same internal partition, so that submission sequence order is correctly recorded. The partition is chosen by a hash function over this value and cannot be chosen directly.

See Partitioned queues and topics in https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/service-bus-messaging/service-bus-partitioning.

Return type

str

raw_amqp_message

Advanced usage only. The internal AMQP message payload that is sent or received.

reply_to

The address of an entity to send replies to.

This optional and application-defined value is a standard way to express a reply path to the receiver of the message. When a sender expects a reply, it sets the value to the absolute or relative path of the queue or topic it expects the reply to be sent to.

See Message Routing and Correlation in https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/service-bus-messaging/service-bus-messages-payloads?#message-routing-and-correlation.

Return type

str

reply_to_session_id

The session identifier augmenting the reply_to address.

This value augments the reply_to information and specifies which session id should be set for the reply when sent to the reply entity.

See Message Routing and Correlation in https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/service-bus-messaging/service-bus-messages-payloads?#message-routing-and-correlation.

Return type

str

scheduled_enqueue_time_utc

The utc scheduled enqueue time to the message.

This property can be used for scheduling when sending a message through ServiceBusSender.send method. If cancelling scheduled messages is required, you should use the ServiceBusSender.schedule method, which returns sequence numbers that can be used for future cancellation. scheduled_enqueue_time_utc is None if not set.

Return type

session_id

The session identifier of the message for a sessionful entity.

For sessionful entities, this application-defined value specifies the session affiliation of the message. Messages with the same session identifier are subject to summary locking and enable exact in-order processing and demultiplexing. For non-sessionful entities, this value is ignored.

See Message Sessions in https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/service-bus-messaging/message-sessions.

Return type

str

subject

The application specific subject, sometimes referred to as a label.

This property enables the application to indicate the purpose of the message to the receiver in a standardized fashion, similar to an email subject line.

Return type

str

time_to_live

The life duration of a message.

This value is the relative duration after which the message expires, starting from the instant the message has been accepted and stored by the broker, as captured in enqueued_time_utc. When not set explicitly, the assumed value is the DefaultTimeToLive for the respective queue or topic. A message-level time-to-live value cannot be longer than the entity's time-to-live setting and it is silently adjusted if it does.

See Expiration in https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/service-bus-messaging/message-expiration

Return type

to

The to address.

This property is reserved for future use in routing scenarios and presently ignored by the broker itself. Applications can use this value in rule-driven auto-forward chaining scenarios to indicate the intended logical destination of the message.

See https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/service-bus-messaging/service-bus-auto-forwarding for more details.
