azure-eventgrid-java
Helps your agent build event-driven applications using Azure Event Grid in Java. It's useful for connecting different system parts that need to communicate via events.
What it does
This tool allows your computer programs to send and receive messages in an organized way, like notifications. It's useful for connecting different parts of a system or for one service to inform another about something that happened.
When to use it
- ✓When one service needs to notify others about new information (e.g., a new order).
- ✓To connect different applications that need to exchange messages.
- ✓When you want an event in one service to trigger an action in another.
Example of what to ask your AI
“How do I make my program send a notification that a new customer has registered?”

How to use
The easiest way: copy the message below and paste it into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any AI. It reads the skill and follows the instructions.

How it works
You configure your program to connect to a message 'topic'. Then, you can send messages to that topic, specifying the type and content. Other programs can 'listen' to this topic to receive the messages.
Installation
Easiest way: copy the skill link and paste it into Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor asking it to follow the instructions.

Client Creation
EventGridPublisherClient
import com.azure.messaging.eventgrid.EventGridPublisherClient;
import com.azure.messaging.eventgrid.EventGridPublisherClientBuilder;
import com.azure.core.credential.AzureKeyCredential;
// With API Key
EventGridPublisherClient<EventGridEvent> client = new EventGridPublisherClientBuilder()
.endpoint("<topic-endpoint>")
.credential(new AzureKeyCredential("<access-key>"))
.buildEventGridEventPublisherClient();
// For CloudEvents
EventGridPublisherClient<CloudEvent> cloudClient = new EventGridPublisherClientBuilder()
.endpoint("<topic-endpoint>")
.credential(new AzureKeyCredential("<access-key>"))
.buildCloudEventPublisherClient();
With DefaultAzureCredential
import com.azure.identity.DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder;
EventGridPublisherClient<EventGridEvent> client = new EventGridPublisherClientBuilder()
.endpoint("<topic-endpoint>")
.credential(new DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder().build())
.buildEventGridEventPublisherClient();
Async Client
import com.azure.messaging.eventgrid.EventGridPublisherAsyncClient;
EventGridPublisherAsyncClient<EventGridEvent> asyncClient = new EventGridPublisherClientBuilder()
.endpoint("<topic-endpoint>")
.credential(new AzureKeyCredential("<access-key>"))
.buildEventGridEventPublisherAsyncClient();
Event Types
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
EventGridEvent |
Azure Event Grid native schema |
CloudEvent |
CNCF CloudEvents 1.0 specification |
BinaryData |
Custom schema events |
Core Patterns
Publish EventGridEvent
import com.azure.messaging.eventgrid.EventGridEvent;
import com.azure.core.util.BinaryData;
EventGridEvent event = new EventGridEvent(
"resource/path", // subject
"MyApp.Events.OrderCreated", // eventType
BinaryData.fromObject(new OrderData("order-123", 99.99)), // data
"1.0" // dataVersion
);
client.sendEvent(event);
Publish Multiple Events
List<EventGridEvent> events = Arrays.asList(
new EventGridEvent("orders/1", "Order.Created",
BinaryData.fromObject(order1), "1.0"),
new EventGridEvent("orders/2", "Order.Created",
BinaryData.fromObject(order2), "1.0")
);
client.sendEvents(events);
Publish CloudEvent
import com.azure.core.models.CloudEvent;
import com.azure.core.models.CloudEventDataFormat;
CloudEvent cloudEvent = new CloudEvent(
"/myapp/orders", // source
"order.created", // type
BinaryData.fromObject(orderData), // data
CloudEventDataFormat.JSON // dataFormat
);
cloudEvent.setSubject("orders/12345");
cloudEvent.setId(UUID.randomUUID().toString());
cloudClient.sendEvent(cloudEvent);
Publish CloudEvents Batch
List<CloudEvent> cloudEvents = Arrays.asList(
new CloudEvent("/app", "event.type1", BinaryData.fromString("data1"), CloudEventDataFormat.JSON),
new CloudEvent("/app", "event.type2", BinaryData.fromString("data2"), CloudEventDataFormat.JSON)
);
cloudClient.sendEvents(cloudEvents);
Async Publishing
asyncClient.sendEvent(event)
.subscribe(
unused -> System.out.println("Event sent successfully"),
error -> System.err.println("Error: " + error.getMessage())
);
// With multiple events
asyncClient.sendEvents(events)
.doOnSuccess(unused -> System.out.println("All events sent"))
.doOnError(error -> System.err.println("Failed: " + error))
.block(); // Block if needed
Custom Event Data Class
public class OrderData {
private String orderId;
private double amount;
private String customerId;
public OrderData(String orderId, double amount) {
this.orderId = orderId;
this.amount = amount;
}
// Getters and setters
}
// Usage
OrderData order = new OrderData("ORD-123", 150.00);
EventGridEvent event = new EventGridEvent(
"orders/" + order.getOrderId(),
"MyApp.Order.Created",
BinaryData.fromObject(order),
"1.0"
);
Receiving Events
Parse EventGridEvent

FAQ
What are 'events'?
Events are like messages that inform that something has happened. For example, 'Order Created', 'User Logged In', 'File Uploaded'.
What is a 'topic'?
A topic is like a communication channel. Programs send events to a topic, and other programs receive events from that same topic.
Can I send any type of information?
Yes, you can send information in different formats, such as order data or user details, using standard or custom schemas.
