AWS Simple Notification System (SNS)
Since Camel 3.1
Only producer is supported
The AWS2 SNS component allows messages to be sent to an Amazon Simple Notification Topic. The implementation of the Amazon API is provided by the AWS SDK.
Prerequisites
You must have a valid Amazon Web Services developer account, and be signed up to use Amazon SNS. More information is available at Amazon SNS.
The AWS2 SNS component is not supported in OSGI |
URI Format
aws2-sns://topicNameOrArn[?options]
The topic will be created if they don’t already exists.
You can append query options to the URI in the following format,
?options=value&option2=value&…
URI Options
The AWS Simple Notification System (SNS) component supports 24 options, which are listed below.
Name | Description | Default | Type |
---|---|---|---|
amazonSNSClient (producer) |
Autowired To use the AmazonSNS as the client |
SnsClient |
|
autoCreateTopic (producer) |
Setting the autocreation of the topic |
false |
boolean |
configuration (producer) |

Sns2Configuration |
|
kmsMasterKeyId (producer) |
The ID of an AWS-managed customer master key (CMK) for Amazon SNS or a custom CMK. |
String |
|
lazyStartProducer (producer) |
Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel’s routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing. |
false |
boolean |
messageDeduplicationIdStrategy (producer) |
Only for FIFO Topic. Strategy for setting the messageDeduplicationId on the message. Can be one of the following options: useExchangeId, useContentBasedDeduplication. For the useContentBasedDeduplication option, no messageDeduplicationId will be set on the message. There are 2 enums and the value can be one of: useExchangeId, useContentBasedDeduplication |
useExchangeId |
String |
messageGroupIdStrategy (producer) |
Only for FIFO Topic. Strategy for setting the messageGroupId on the message. Can be one of the following options: useConstant, useExchangeId, usePropertyValue. For the usePropertyValue option, the value of property CamelAwsMessageGroupId will be used. There are 3 enums and the value can be one of: useConstant, useExchangeId, usePropertyValue |
String |

Required SNS component options
You have to provide the amazonSNSClient in the Registry or your accessKey and secretKey to access the Amazon’s SNS.
Usage
Static credentials vs Default Credential Provider
You have the possibility of avoiding the usage of explicit static credentials, by specifying the useDefaultCredentialsProvider option and set it to true.
-
Java system properties - aws.accessKeyId and aws.secretKey
-
Environment variables - AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.
-
Web Identity Token from AWS STS.
-
The shared credentials and config files.
-
Amazon ECS container credentials - loaded from the Amazon ECS if the environment variable AWS_CONTAINER_CREDENTIALS_RELATIVE_URI is set.
-
Amazon EC2 Instance profile credentials.
For more information about this you can look at AWS credentials documentation
Message headers evaluated by the SNS producer
Header | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
|
|
The Amazon SNS message subject. If not set, the subject from the
|
Message headers set by the SNS producer
Header | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
|
|
The Amazon SNS message ID. |
Advanced AmazonSNS configuration
If you need more control over the SnsClient
instance configuration you
can create your own instance and refer to it from the URI:
from("direct:start")
.to("aws2-sns://MyTopic?amazonSNSClient=#client");
The #client
refers to a AmazonSNS
in the
Registry.
Create a subscription between an AWS SNS Topic and an AWS SQS Queue
You can create a subscription of an SQS Queue to an SNS Topic in this way:
from("direct:start")
.to("aws2-sns://test-camel-sns1?amazonSNSClient=#amazonSNSClient&subscribeSNStoSQS=true&queueUrl=https://sqs.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/780410022472/test-camel");
The #amazonSNSClient
refers to a SnsClient
in the
Registry.
By specifying subscribeSNStoSQS
to true and a queueUrl
of an existing SQS Queue,
you’ll be able to subscribe your SQS Queue to your SNS Topic.
At this point you can consume messages coming from SNS Topic through your SQS Queue
from("aws2-sqs://test-camel?amazonSQSClient=#amazonSQSClient&delay=50&maxMessagesPerPoll=5")
.to(...);
Topic Autocreation
With the option autoCreateTopic
users are able to avoid the autocreation of an SNS Topic in case it doesn’t exist. The default for this option is true
.
If set to false any operation on a not-existent topic in AWS won’t be successful and an error will be returned.
SNS FIFO
SNS FIFO are supported. While creating the SQS queue you will subscribe to the SNS topic there is an important point to remember, you’ll need to make possible for the SNS Topic to send message to the SQS Queue.
This is clear with an example.
Suppose you created an SNS FIFO Topic called Order.fifo and an SQS Queue called QueueSub.fifo.
In the access Policy of the QueueSub.fifo you should submit something like this
{
"Version": "2008-10-17",
"Id": "__default_policy_ID",
"Statement": [
{
"Sid": "__owner_statement",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"AWS": "arn:aws:iam::780560123482:root"
},
"Action": "SQS:*",
"Resource": "arn:aws:sqs:eu-west-1:780560123482:QueueSub.fifo"
},
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"Service": "sns.amazonaws.com"
},
"Action": "SQS:SendMessage",
"Resource": "arn:aws:sqs:eu-west-1:780560123482:QueueSub.fifo",
"Condition": {
"ArnLike": {
"aws:SourceArn": "arn:aws:sns:eu-west-1:780410022472:Order.fifo"
}
}
}
]
}
This is a critical step to make the subscription work correctly.
SNS Fifo Topic Message group Id Strategy and message Deduplication Id Strategy
When sending something to the FIFO topic you’ll need to always set up a message group Id strategy.
If the content-based message deduplication has been enabled on the SNS Fifo topic, where won’t be the need of setting a message deduplication id strategy, otherwise you’ll have to set it.
Dependencies
Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml.
pom.xml
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
<artifactId>camel-aws2-sns</artifactId>
<version>${camel-version}</version>
</dependency>
where ${camel-version}
must be replaced by the actual version of Camel.
Spring Boot Auto-Configuration
When using aws2-sns with Spring Boot make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for auto configuration:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.camel.springboot</groupId>
<artifactId>camel-aws2-sns-starter</artifactId>
<version>x.x.x</version>
<!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>
