[Event Hubs] EventHubSender sample using SAS and Publisher

[fashaikh]

Is there a way to use a sas connection string like this with the js sdk..
Cant find a way to mimic this https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.servicebus.messaging.eventhubsender.createfromconnectionstring?view=azure-dotnet

Here is how the publisherSASUri looks like

"Endpoint=sb://sbname.servicebus.windows.net/;SharedAccessSignature=SharedAccessSignature sr=sb%3a%2f%2fsbname.servicebus.windows.net%2feventhubname%2fPublishers%2fpublishername&sig=signature&se=9999&skn=SendPolicy;EntityPath=EventHubName;Publisher=publishername"

Thanks for reporting @fashaikh
This is currently not possible to do in the 2.1.1 version of the event hubs library.

We are working on a new version of this library at the moment and will get back to this issue in January with updates if any

Hi there we are experiencing the same issue with the @azure/service-bus package, will this also be fixed in the same release?

@fashaikh, @erwinbooij,

Currently the connection string support in both Event Hubs and Service Bus libraries is restricted to having only the SharedAccessKey and SharedAccessKeyName in it, using which the library then creates the SAS token.

In the example shared in the issue description here, looks like what is being asked is the ability to pass in the SAS token itself in the connection string.

Can you share what design choices in your application leads you to require to pass the SAS token yourself rather than relying on the library to create it?

@ramya-rao-a in my case a different team is managing the event hub that we're writing to. They recently changed from issuing a connection string that has SharedAccessKey and SharedAccessKeyName properties to one that only has SharedAccessSignature. Apparently the .Net Core client can connect using this SAS token (as the team demonstrated in their documentation).

Removing the needs-author-feedback label as this is a feature request we have seen coming in via other channels for other languages as well. Keeping the issue open and in the backlog for now. We will look into how we can incorporate this into the new SDK this semester.

Hello all,

The latest Event Hubs package with version 5.3.0 and the latest preview of the Service Bus package with version 7.0.0-preview.6 now support taking connection string that has SharedAccessSignature specified.

Please give it a try and let us know if you see any issues with it.

Thanks for your patience!
