Amazon Simple Queue Service: Send-SQSMessageBatch Cmdlet

Synopsis

Calls the Amazon Simple Queue Service SendMessageBatch API operation.

Syntax

Send-SQSMessageBatch
-QueueUrl <String>
-Entry <SendMessageBatchRequestEntry[]>
-Force <SwitchParameter>

Description

Delivers up to ten messages to the specified queue. This is a batch version of SendMessage. For a FIFO queue, multiple messages within a single batch are enqueued in the order they are sent. The result of sending each message is reported individually in the response. Because the batch request can result in a combination of successful and unsuccessful actions, you should check for batch errors even when the call returns an HTTP status code of 200. The maximum allowed individual message size and the maximum total payload size (the sum of the individual lengths of all of the batched messages) are both 256 KB (262,144 bytes). A message can include only XML, JSON, and unformatted text. The following Unicode characters are allowed: #x9 | #xA | #xD | #x20 to #xD7FF | #xE000 to #xFFFD | #x10000 to #x10FFFF Any characters not included in this list will be rejected. For more information, see the W3C specification for characters. If you don't specify the DelaySeconds parameter for an entry, Amazon SQS uses the default value for the queue. Some actions take lists of parameters. These lists are specified using the param.n notation. Values of n are integers starting from 1. For example, a parameter list with two elements looks like this: &Attribute.1=first&Attribute.2=second

Parameters

-Entry <SendMessageBatchRequestEntry[]>

A list of SendMessageBatchRequestEntry items.

Required?	False
Position?	Named
Accept pipeline input?	False

-Force <SwitchParameter>

This parameter overrides confirmation prompts to force the cmdlet to continue its operation. This parameter should always be used with caution.

Required?	False
Position?	Named
Accept pipeline input?	False

-QueueUrl <String>

The URL of the Amazon SQS queue to which batched messages are sent.Queue URLs and names are case-sensitive.

Required?	False
Position?	1
Accept pipeline input?	True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)

Common Credential and Region Parameters

-AccessKey <String>

The AWS access key for the user account. This can be a temporary access key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.

Required?	False
Position?	Named
Accept pipeline input?	False

-Credential <AWSCredentials>

An AWSCredentials object instance containing access and secret key information, and optionally a token for session-based credentials.

Required?	False
Position?	Named
Accept pipeline input?	False

-ProfileLocation <String>

Used to specify the name and location of the ini-format credential file (shared with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs)

If this optional parameter is omitted this cmdlet will search the encrypted credential file used by the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio first. If the profile is not found then the cmdlet will search in the ini-format credential file at the default location: (user's home directory)\.aws\credentials. Note that the encrypted credential file is not supported on all platforms. It will be skipped when searching for profiles on Windows Nano Server, Mac, and Linux platforms.

If this parameter is specified then this cmdlet will only search the ini-format credential file at the location given.

As the current folder can vary in a shell or during script execution it is advised that you use specify a fully qualified path instead of a relative path.

Required?	False
Position?	Named
Accept pipeline input?	False

-ProfileName <String>

The user-defined name of an AWS credentials or SAML-based role profile containing credential information. The profile is expected to be found in the secure credential file shared with the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio. You can also specify the name of a profile stored in the .ini-format credential file used with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs.

Required?	False
Position?	Named
Accept pipeline input?	False

-NetworkCredential <PSCredential>

Used with SAML-based authentication when ProfileName references a SAML role profile. Contains the network credentials to be supplied during authentication with the configured identity provider's endpoint. This parameter is not required if the user's default network identity can or should be used during authentication.

Required?	False
Position?	Named
Accept pipeline input?	False

-SecretKey <String>

The AWS secret key for the user account. This can be a temporary secret key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.

Required?	False
Position?	Named
Accept pipeline input?	False

-SessionToken <String>

The session token if the access and secret keys are temporary session-based credentials.

Required?	False
Position?	Named
Accept pipeline input?	False

-Region <String>

The system name of the AWS region in which the operation should be invoked. For example, us-east-1, eu-west-1 etc.

Required?	False
Position?	Named
Accept pipeline input?	False

-EndpointUrl <String>

The endpoint to make the call against.

Note: This parameter is primarily for internal AWS use and is not required/should not be specified for normal usage. The cmdlets normally determine which endpoint to call based on the region specified to the -Region parameter or set as default in the shell (via Set-DefaultAWSRegion). Only specify this parameter if you must direct the call to a specific custom endpoint.

Required?	False
Position?	Named
Accept pipeline input?	False

Inputs

System.String

You can pipe a String object to this cmdlet for the QueueUrl parameter.

Outputs

Amazon.SQS.Model.SendMessageBatchResponse

This cmdlet returns a Amazon.SQS.Model.SendMessageBatchResponse object containing multiple properties. The object can also be referenced from properties attached to the cmdlet entry in the $AWSHistory stack.
