Get queue message count using Microsoft.Azure.Management.ServiceBus

Question

I need an example on how to make CRUD operations on service bus queues.

I actually need an instance of Microsoft.Azure.Management.ServiceBus.SBQueue class, so I can count the messages in that queue.

Answer 1

The older way is to use the ManagementClient

var managementClient = new ManagementClient(connectionString);
var queueRuntimeInfo = await managementClient.GetQueueRuntimeInfoAsync(queueName);
Console.WriteLine(queueRuntimeInfo.MessageCount);

The more modern way is to use ServiceBusAdministrationClient

var client = new ServiceBusAdministrationClient(connectionString);
var runtimeProperties = await client.GetQueueRuntimePropertiesAsync(queueName);
Console.WriteLine(runtimeProperties .ActiveMessageCount);
