#send_message(options = {}) ⇒ Types::SendMessageResult

Examples:

Request syntax with placeholder values


queue.send_message({
  message_body: "String", # required
  delay_seconds: 1,
  message_attributes: {
    "String" => {
      string_value: "String",
      binary_value: "data",
      string_list_values: ["String"],
      binary_list_values: ["data"],
      data_type: "String", # required
    },
  },
  message_deduplication_id: "String",
  message_group_id: "String",
})

Parameters:

  • options (Hash) (defaults to: {})

    ({})

Options Hash (options):

  • :message_body (required, String)

    The message to send. The maximum string size is 256 KB.

    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].

  • :delay_seconds (Integer)

    The length of time, in seconds, for which to delay a specific message. Valid values: 0 to 900. Maximum: 15 minutes. Messages with a positive ‘DelaySeconds` value become available for processing after the delay period is finished. If you don’t specify a value, the default value for the queue applies.

    <note markdown=“1”> When you set ‘FifoQueue`, you can’t set ‘DelaySeconds` per message. You can set this parameter only on a queue level.

    </note>
    
  • :message_attributes (Hash<String,Types::MessageAttributeValue>)

    Each message attribute consists of a ‘Name`, `Type`, and `Value`. For more information, see [Amazon SQS Message Attributes] in the *Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSSimpleQueueService/latest/SQSDeveloperGuide/sqs-message-attributes.html

  • :message_deduplication_id (String)

    This parameter applies only to FIFO (first-in-first-out) queues.

    The token used for deduplication of sent messages. If a message with a particular ‘MessageDeduplicationId` is sent successfully, any messages sent with the same `MessageDeduplicationId` are accepted successfully but aren’t delivered during the 5-minute deduplication interval. For more information, see [ Exactly-Once Processing] in the *Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide*.

    • Every message must have a unique ‘MessageDeduplicationId`,

      • You may provide a ‘MessageDeduplicationId` explicitly.

      • If you aren’t able to provide a ‘MessageDeduplicationId` and you enable `ContentBasedDeduplication` for your queue, Amazon SQS uses a SHA-256 hash to generate the `MessageDeduplicationId` using the body of the message (but not the attributes of the message).

      • If you don’t provide a ‘MessageDeduplicationId` and the queue doesn’t have ‘ContentBasedDeduplication` set, the action fails with an error.

      • If the queue has ‘ContentBasedDeduplication` set, your `MessageDeduplicationId` overrides the generated one.

    • When ‘ContentBasedDeduplication` is in effect, messages with identical content sent within the deduplication interval are treated as duplicates and only one copy of the message is delivered.

    • If you send one message with ‘ContentBasedDeduplication` enabled and then another message with a `MessageDeduplicationId` that is the same as the one generated for the first `MessageDeduplicationId`, the two messages are treated as duplicates and only one copy of the message is delivered.

    <note markdown=“1”> The ‘MessageDeduplicationId` is available to the consumer of the message (this can be useful for troubleshooting delivery issues).

    If a message is sent successfully but the acknowledgement is lost and
    

    the message is resent with the same ‘MessageDeduplicationId` after the deduplication interval, Amazon SQS can’t detect duplicate messages.

    Amazon SQS continues to keep track of the message deduplication ID
    

    even after the message is received and deleted.

    </note>
    

    The length of ‘MessageDeduplicationId` is 128 characters. `MessageDeduplicationId` can contain alphanumeric characters (`a-z`, `A-Z`, `0-9`) and punctuation (“ !“#$%&’()*+,-./:;<=>?@[]^_`{|}~ “).

    For best practices of using ‘MessageDeduplicationId`, see [Using the MessageDeduplicationId Property] in the *Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide*.

  • :message_group_id (String)

    This parameter applies only to FIFO (first-in-first-out) queues.

    The tag that specifies that a message belongs to a specific message group. Messages that belong to the same message group are processed in a FIFO manner (however, messages in different message groups might be processed out of order). To interleave multiple ordered streams within a single queue, use ‘MessageGroupId` values (for example, session data for multiple users). In this scenario, multiple consumers can process the queue, but the session data of each user is processed in a FIFO fashion.

    • You must associate a non-empty ‘MessageGroupId` with a message. If you don’t provide a ‘MessageGroupId`, the action fails.

    • ‘ReceiveMessage` might return messages with multiple `MessageGroupId` values. For each `MessageGroupId`, the messages are sorted by time sent. The caller can’t specify a ‘MessageGroupId`.

    The length of ‘MessageGroupId` is 128 characters. Valid values: alphanumeric characters and punctuation “ (!“#$%&’()*+,-./:;<=>?@[]^_`{|}~) “.

    For best practices of using ‘MessageGroupId`, see [Using the MessageGroupId Property] in the *Amazon Simple Queue Service Developer Guide*.

    ‘MessageGroupId` is required for FIFO queues. You can’t use it for Standard queues.
