Class EventHubConnectionStringProperties

java.lang.Object
com.azure.messaging.eventhubs.models.EventHubConnectionStringProperties

public final class EventHubConnectionStringProperties extends Object
A utility class that parses a connection string into sections. An Event Hubs connection string is a set of key-value pairs separated by semi-colon. A typical example is "Endpoint=sb://foo.EventHub.windows.net/;SharedAccessKeyName=someKeyName;SharedAccessKey=someKeyValue".

A connection may have the following sections:

  • Endpoint, which is mandatory. The hostname part of it is the "Fully qualified namespace".
  • SharedAccessKeyName and SharedAccessKey, optional, used to authenticate the access to the EventHub.
  • SharedAccessSignature, optional, an alternative way to authenticate the access to the EventHub.
  • EntityPath, optional, the queue name or the topic name under the service namespace

When you have an Event Hubs connection string, you can use EventHubClientBuilder.connectionString(String) to build a client. If you'd like to use a TokenCredential to access an Event Hub, you can use this utility class to get the fully qualified namespace and entity path from the connection string and then use EventHubClientBuilder.credential(String, String, TokenCredential).
