The Kafka Write Adaptor allows messages to be produced to a Kafka Topic.

Creating a Kafka Write Adaptor

In order to create a Kafka Write Adaptor it is necessary to create a Kafka Connection.

Create a new item via the create button in the graphs tab of the project home page select the Kafka Adaptor icon and give the adaptor a name.

Choose the connection from the drop down list in the Adaptor screen or edit it directly by clicking the pencil icon next to the connection name.

Next choose the data location of the data that will be written to the topic. This must be a schema location or a public variable.
