Configure Queues and Endpoint Connections
The queues that you configure are:
- CRM Outgoing Queue
- CRM Incoming Queue
- CampusVue Outgoing Queue
- CRM Error Queue
- CampusVue Error Queue
In the QueueManagerConfiguration.config XML file, the root element, QueueManagerConfig, contains the following child elements:
-
Objects - containing queue property information for the five queues
-
Endpoints - containing endpoints connection options for the two systems, CampusNexus CRM and Anthology Student
-
Administrators - containing administrator user credentials of Queue Manager application
-
UIConfig - rows setting option for the Queue Manager application
When required, you modify default values of options that come with the QueueManagerConfiguration.config XML file.
The general steps involved in setting a value for the configurable options are the same for all options. These steps are described first in the Task section shown next. The actual configurable options are listed in the sections that follow.
Notes:
-
The default values for URLs, usernames and passwords are only sample values. These values must be changed according to your customized installation, for the components to work correctly. Please consult the CampusLink API Administrator for the correct values of your system’s installation.
-
Before changing option settings in the configuration files, ensure that you always make a backup copy first; you may choose to rename the backup copy with the .old extension.

Queue Manager automatically encrypts the usernames and passwords of CampusNexus CRM and Anthology Student, within the QueueManagerConfigurationCustom.config file, during the initial invocation of the Queue Manager application.
As a result, if, subsequently, you choose to modify the username and password fields, you need reconfigure this file after logging out of the application.
In such cases, ensure that you clear the encrypted text within the username and password fields within the file, and re-enter these fields.
