MSMQ Connection Manager

Applies to: SQL Server SSIS Integration Runtime in Azure Data Factory

An MSMQ connection manager enables a package to connect to a message queue that uses Message Queuing (also known as MSMQ). The Message Queue task that Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services includes uses an MSMQ connection manager.

When you add an MSMQ connection manager to a package, Integration Services creates a connection manager that will resolve to an MSMQ connection at run time, sets the connection manager properties, and adds the connection manager to the Connections collection on the package. The ConnectionManagerType property of the connection manager is set to MSMQ.

You can configure an MSMQ connection manager in the following ways:

  • Provide a connection string.

  • Provide the path of the message queue to connect to.

The format of the path depends on the type of queue, as shown in the following table.

Queue type Sample path
Public <computer name>\<queue name>
Private <computer name>\Private$\<queue name>

You can use a period (.) to represent the local computer.

Configuration of the MSMQ Connection Manager

You can set properties through SSIS Designer or programmatically.

For more information about the properties that you can set in SSIS Designer, see MSMQ Connection Manager Editor.

For information about configuring a connection manager programmatically, see ConnectionManager and Adding Connections Programmatically.

MSMQ Connection Manager Editor

Use the MSMQ Connection Manager dialog box to specify the path to a Message Queuing (also known as MSMQ) message queue.

To learn more about the MSMQ connection manager, see MSMQ Connection Manager.

Note

The MSMQ connection manager supports local public and private queues and remote public queues. It does not support remote private queues. For a workaround that uses the Script Task, see Sending to a Remote Private Message Queue with the Script Task.

Options

Name
Provide a unique name for the MSMQ connection manager in the workflow. The name provided will be displayed within SSIS Designer.

Description
Describe the connection manager. As a best practice, describe the connection manager in terms of its purpose, to make packages self-documenting and easier to maintain.

Path
Type the complete path of the message queue. The format of the path depends on the type of queue.

Queue type Sample path
Public <computer name>\<queue name>
Private <computer name>\Private$\<queue name>

You can use "." to represent the local computer.

Test
After configuring the MSMQ connection manager, confirm that the connection is viable by clicking Test.
