Topics

Overview

Topics are data schemas that define and standardize the payload of messages sent between different actors in the platform. Topics are grouped under Applications and administered by Application owners (specifically Admin Users in the Client Gateway). They can be updated over time to accommodate changes in the data schema through versioning.

There are 4 types of data schema supported in the Client Gateway topics which are:

• JSD7
