Message Headers

Solace and JMS message headers can be created or manipulated using the User-Configured Header Transforms feature.

Solace Headers

Solace headers exposed to the connector are documented in the Spring Cloud Stream Binder for Solace PubSub+ documentation.

JMS Message Headers

The JMS headers exposed to the connector are as follows:

Header Name	Type	Access	Description
`jms_correlationId`	`String`	Read/Write	The correlation ID for the message.
`jms_deliveryMode`	`int`	Read	The delivery mode value specified for this message.
`jms_destination`	For version 2.0.0 and later: `jakarta.jms.Destination` For versions earlier than 2.0.0: `javax.jms.Destination`	Read	The destination to which the message is being sent. For versions 2.4.4 and later, consumer bindings no longer map `jms_destination`and therefore are no longer accessible for use in transform-header expressions. If your configuration includes default workflow transform-header expressions that nullify this message header, you can remove the expressions.
`jms_expiration`	`long`	Read	The time at which the JMS message is set to expire.
`jms_messageId`	`String`	Read	A value that uniquely identifies each message sent by a provider.
`jms_priority`	`int`	Read/Write	Specifies the message’s priority set on the send. When header is absent, JMS message is sent with default priority of 4.
`jms_redelivered`	`boolean`	Read	An indication of whether this message is being redelivered.
`jms_replyTo`	For versions 2.0.0 and later: `jakarta.jms.Destination` For versions earlier than 2.0.0: `javax.jms.Destination`	Read (Available only ror versions 2.4.3 and earlier) Write (Available only for Outbound messages)	The Destination object to which a reply to this message should be sent. For versions 2.4.4 and later, consumer bindings no longer map `jms_replyTo`and therefore are no longer accessible for use in transform-header expressions. If your configuration includes default workflow transform-header expressions that nullify this message header, you can remove the expressions.
`jms_timestamp`	`long`	Read	The time a message was handed off to a provider to be sent.
`jms_timeToLive`	`long`	Write	Specifies the message’s time to live set on the send. When header is absent, JMS message is sent with default timeToLive of 0 (zero means that a message never expires).
`jms_type`	`String`	Read/Write	The message type identifier supplied by the client when the message was sent.

JMS Binder Headers

For connector versions 2.0.0 and later, you can use the following header to get and set JMS Binder properties and JMS Binder metadata.


Header Name	Type	Access	Description
`jms_scst_nullPayload`	`boolean`	Read	Specifies when the JMS message payload is null. Two cases exist: A `JMS TextMessage` with no message payload is received: The payload is converted to an empty String, and the `jms_scst_nullPayload` header is added. A JMS `Message` with no message payload is received: The payload is converted to an empty byte array, and the `jms_scst_nullPayload` header is added.

Reserved Message Headers

The following are reserved header spaces:

solace_
scst_
jms_|JMS_|JMSX
Any headers defined by the core Spring messaging framework. For more information, see Spring Integration: Message Headers.

Any headers with these prefixes (that are not defined by the connector or any technology used by the connector) may not be backwards compatible in future versions of this connector.
