Verify operation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Verify operation of the Messaging service by creating messages via curl
utility:

.. code-block:: console

   $ curl -i -X POST http://ZAQAR_ENDPOINT:8888/v2/queues/samplequeue/messages \
     -d '{"messages": [{"body": {"event": 1}, "ttl": 600}, {"body": {"event": 2}, "ttl": 600}]}' \
     -H "Content-type: application/json" \
     -H "Client-ID: CLIENT_ID" \
     -H "X-Auth-Token: TOKEN"

Replace ``CLIENT_ID`` variable with the universally unique identifier (UUID)
which can be generated by, for example, ``uuidgen`` utility.

Replace ``TOKEN`` variable with the authentication token retrieved from
Identity service. If you choose not to enable Keystone authentication you
won't have to pass a token.

Replace ``ZAQAR_ENDPOINT`` variable with the endpoint of Messaging service.

The normal response would be with status code 201 and look something like this:

.. code-block:: console

   HTTP/1.1 201 Created
   content-length: 135
   content-type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
