Exporting Messages

Exporting Messages

HZN Queue Console can export messages from any queue to a JSON file on your machine. This is useful for offline analysis, sharing a set of messages with a colleague, or archiving a queue’s contents before purging.

How to Export

  1. Open the queue you want to export from in the Queue Browser.
  2. Optionally apply filters to narrow down which messages to export.
  3. Click Export in the toolbar.
  4. Choose the save location.

Export Format

Exports are saved as JSON and include all message metadata:

  • Payload (body)
  • Content type
  • Headers
  • Message ID, correlation ID
  • Timestamp

Exporting Large Queues

The export operates on the messages currently loaded in the browser. If the queue has more messages than your fetch limit:

  1. Increase the rows-per-page count before exporting.
  2. Or apply filters to split the export into smaller batches.

What Is Not Exported

  • Messages that have not yet been fetched (beyond the current fetch window)
  • Messages consumed and removed by other clients during the export
