Mendix Event Broker Bridges

Introduction

Mendix Event Broker Bridges integrate the Mendix Event Broker with external technologies, such as AWS SQS, HTTP, Azure Blob Storage, AWS S3, and Apache Iceberg. These bridges enable the exchange of events between your Mendix Cloud environment and external systems.

Standard Message Format

Every event must include four CloudEvents core attributes, each prefixed with ce_:

• ce_id as id
• ce_source as source
• ce_specversion as specversion
• ce_type as type

See CloudEvents for more information on required attributes.

Creating a Bridge

Technical Contacts with a license to the Mendix Event Broker can manage this feature from the Event Broker Bridges tab on the Event Broker Manager page.

1. Click Create a Bridge to create a new bridge.

2. Select one of the following bridge types:

   • AWS SQS
   • HTTP
   • Azure Blob Storage
   • AWS S3
   • Iceberg

3. Click Next to continue creating your bridge.

4. After configuring the service and connecting events (as described in the bridge-specific sections above), click Start on the confirmation screen to deploy the bridge.

After the bridge deploys, you can view its configuration and status on the Overview page.

Managing Bridges

After creating a bridge, you can modify and manage its configuration through the Event Broker Manager.
