Enabling and Disabling Publications and Subscriptions

When you have configured a messaging relationship and an activation method, the publication and subscription that make up the relationship must both be enabled in order to send and receive messages.

You can enable and disable publications and subscriptions from:

  • From Winter 2022, the messaging relationship
  • The Foundations Setup tab
  • Individual publication and subscription records

Messaging Relationship

To enable or disable publications or subscriptions from the messaging relationship:

On the Message Types tab, click the name of the message type that contains the messaging relationship.

  1. In the Relationship & Mapping Details section, click Manage Relationship.
  2. Select the Enabled checkboxes to enable the publication and subscriptions or clear the checkboxes to disable them.
  3. Click Save.
Tip:

When creating a new publication or subscription from the messaging relationship, the publication and subscription are automatically enabled.

    If the cell contains Not Enabled, Publishing, Publishing + Subscribing, or Subscribing, you can configure that message type. If the cell does not contain a value, you cannot enable publications or subscriptions for that combination of message type and registered application.
