# XMPP Consumer
A consumer that allows you to send messages through a XMPP server.
## Beans for injection
You can import the `XmppConsumerConfiguration` in the application and then inject the following bean.
`Consumer<Message<?> xmppConsumer`
You need to inject this as `Consumer<Message<?> xmppConsumer`.
You can use `xmppConsumer` as a qualifier when injecting.
**NOTE:** This is a functional endpoint. One will need to subscribe to this endpoint in order to start accepting data
on it.
## Configuration Options
All configuration properties are prefixed with `xmpp.consumer`.
For more information on the various options available, please see link:src/main/java/org/springframework/cloud/fn/consumer/xmpp/XmppConsumerProperties.java[XmppConsumerProperties].
