Aiven Http Sink Connector

Kafka Connectors have been deprecated and will be removed on October, 1st 2024. Please refer to the deprecation notice for more information.

Aiven Http Sink Connector calls a given http endpoint for each item published to your Kafka Topics.

In this guide, we will walk you through creating an Aiven Http Sink Connector.

Get Started

Create a Kafka Cluster

If you do not have a Kafka cluster and/or topic already, follow these steps to create one.

Prepare the Test Environment

If you already have an HTTP endpoint that you will call, you can skip this step and continue from the Create The Connector section.

We will use webhook.site to verify if the connector is working. Go to webhook.site and copy the unique url to pass it in the connector config later.

Create the Connector

Go to the Connectors tab, and create your first connector by clicking the New Connector button.

Choose your connector as Aiven Http Sink Connector

Enter the required properties.

The advanced screen is for any other configuration that the selected connector supports. At the top of this screen, you can find a link to related documentation. We can proceed with what we have and click the Connect button directly.

Congratulations! You have created an Aiven Http Sink Connector.

As you put data into your selected topics, the requests should be visible in webhook.site
