Integrating Azure event hub

Discover how you can listen to Transatel events by registering Azure event hub data stream


Through this guide you will learn how to

  1. Identify relevant events for your use cases and their payload definition
  2. Create an Azure event hub data stream
  3. Register your Azure event hub data stream for the selected events
  4. Test your integration by sending test events of your choice
  5. Activate your Azure event hub data stream whenever you are ready

1. Identify relevant events

Start by reviewing all available Transatel events and identify which ones may be useful to trigger your logic:

Then review the specifications of those events that your endpoint will have to process.

2. Create an Azure event hub

To receive events, you will need to create an Azure event hub.

Go to Azure portal and:

  1. Create an Event Hubs Namespace
  2. Create an Event Hubs
  3. Create a Shared Access Policy (Send only)
  4. Get the connection string from the Shared Access Policy you just created, it will be useful to register your data stream later

3. Register your Azure event hub data stream

Go to the Transatel Console and:

  1. Click the Add data stream button under the Data Stream tab
  2. Select which events you want to receive
  3. Choose Azure event hub as destination type
  4. Fill all the data stream information and click on the Create data stream button

Once done you should see your new data stream listed under the Data stream tab.

4. Test your integration

To do so, go to the Transatel Console and:

  1. Click on the data stream for which you want to simulate an event under the Data stream tab
  2. Click on the Send stream event button, then select the event type you want to simulate and click on the Send button

This operation can be used to:

  • Troubleshoot communication issues between our platform and Azure
  • Validate the correct implementation on your platform

5. Activate your Azure event hub data stream

Now that everything works great, let's activate your data stream and start receiving real events!

To do so, go to the Transatel Console and:

  1. Click on ... on the corresponding data stream you want to activate under the Data stream tab
  2. Activate by clicking on Enable
