Kafka Credential

Use this type when workflows publish messages to Kafka.

Configure

  1. Open Credentials -> New Credential.
  2. Select type kafka.
  3. Set:
    • kafka_bootstrap_servers (or env-backed variable)
    • optional SASL username/password
    • TLS enablement if required by cluster
  4. Save and assign in Kafka workflow node.

Verify

Run workflow node test with a known topic and confirm message consumption downstream.

Common issues

  • Broker DNS/port not reachable from gateway runtime.
  • SASL/TLS parameters mismatched with cluster configuration.
