  • HTTP_ENDPOINT: http endpoint to post request.
  • ERROR_TOPIC: Stream to write errors on failure.
  • RESPONSE_TOPIC: Stream to write responses on success response.
  • SOURCE_NAME: Optional. Name of the Source. Default is "KEDAConnector".
  • MAX_RETRIES: Maximum number of times an http endpoint will be retried upon failure.
  • CONTENT_TYPE: Content type used while creating post request.
