Route notifications to destinations with filters and subscriptions

  1. Create a topic to organize incoming events.
  2. Add event filters to define which events are routed to the topic.
  3. Create subscriptions to connect the topic to destinations.
  4. Review the topic, event filter, and subscription details.
  5. Save the configuration to activate the routing flow.
