Chapter 6. Kafka Connect configuration properties config.storage.topic Type: string Importance: high The name of the Kafka topic where connector configurations are stored. group.id Type: string Importance: high A unique string that identifies the Connect cluster group this worker belongs to. key.converter Type: class Importance: high Converter class used to convert between Kafka Connect format and the serialized form that is written to Kafka. This controls the format of the keys in messages written to or read from Kafka, and since this is independent of connectors it allows any connector to work with any serialization format. Examples of common formats include JSON and Avro. offset.storage.topic Type: string Importance: high The name of the Kafka topic where source connector offsets are stored. status.storage.topic Type: string Importance: high The name of the Kafka topic where connector and task status are stored. value.converter Type: class Importance: high Converter class used to convert between Kafka Connect format and the serialized form that is written to Kafka. This controls the format of the values in messages written to or read from Kafka, and since this is independent of connectors it allows any connector to work with any serialization format. Examples of common formats include JSON and Avro. bootstrap.servers Type: list Default: localhost:9092 Importance: high A list of host/port pairs to use for establishing the initial connection to the Kafka cluster. The client will make use of all servers irrespective of which servers are specified here for bootstrapping-this list only impacts the initial hosts used to discover the full set of servers. This list should be in the form host1:port1,host2:port2,... . Since these servers are just used for the initial connection to discover the full cluster membership (which may change dynamically), this list need not contain the full set of servers (you may want more than one, though, in case a server is down). exactly.once.source.support Type: string Default: disabled Valid Values: (case insensitive) [DISABLED, ENABLED, PREPARING] Importance: high Whether to enable exactly-once support for source connectors in the cluster by using transactions to write source records and their source offsets, and by proactively fencing out old task generations before bringing up new ones. To enable exactly-once source support on a new cluster, set this property to 'enabled'. To enable support on an existing cluster, first set to 'preparing' on every worker in the cluster, then set to 'enabled'. A rolling upgrade may be used for both changes. For more information on this feature, see the exactly-once source support documentation . heartbeat.interval.ms Type: int Default: 3000 (3 seconds) Importance: high The expected time between heartbeats to the group coordinator when using Kafka's group management facilities. Heartbeats are used to ensure that the worker's session stays active and to facilitate rebalancing when new members join or leave the group. The value must be set lower than session.timeout.ms , but typically should be set no higher than 1/3 of that value. It can be adjusted even lower to control the expected time for normal rebalances. rebalance.timeout.ms Type: int Default: 60000 (1 minute) Importance: high The maximum allowed time for each worker to join the group once a rebalance has begun. This is basically a limit on the amount of time needed for all tasks to flush any pending data and commit offsets. If the timeout is exceeded, then the worker will be removed from the group, which will cause offset commit failures. session.timeout.ms Type: int Default: 10000 (10 seconds) Importance: high The timeout used to detect worker failures. The worker sends periodic heartbeats to indicate its liveness to the broker. If no heartbeats are received by the broker before the expiration of this session timeout, then the broker will remove the worker from the group and initiate a rebalance. Note that the value must be in the allowable range as configured in the broker configuration by group.min.session.timeout.ms and group.max.session.timeout.ms . ssl.key.password Type: password Default: null Importance: high The password of the private key in the key store file or the PEM key specified in 'ssl.keystore.key'. ssl.keystore.certificate.chain Type: password Default: null Importance: high Certificate chain in the format specified by 'ssl.keystore.type'. Default SSL engine factory supports only PEM format with a list of X.509 certificates. ssl.keystore.key Type: password Default: null Importance: high Private key in the format specified by 'ssl.keystore.type'. Default SSL engine factory supports only PEM format with PKCS#8 keys. If the key is encrypted, key password must be specified using 'ssl.key.password'. ssl.keystore.location Type: string Default: null Importance: high The location of the key store file. This is optional for client and can be used for two-way authentication for client. ssl.keystore.password Type: password Default: null Importance: high The store password for the key store file. This is optional for client and only needed if 'ssl.keystore.location' is configured. Key store password is not supported for PEM format. ssl.truststore.certificates Type: password Default: null Importance: high Trusted certificates in the format specified by 'ssl.truststore.type'. Default SSL engine factory supports only PEM format with X.509 certificates. ssl.truststore.location Type: string Default: null Importance: high The location of the trust store file. ssl.truststore.password Type: password Default: null Importance: high The password for the trust store file. If a password is not set, trust store file configured will still be used, but integrity checking is disabled. Trust store password is not supported for PEM format. client.dns.lookup Type: string Default: use_all_dns_ips Valid Values: [use_all_dns_ips, resolve_canonical_bootstrap_servers_only] Importance: medium Controls how the client uses DNS lookups. If set to use_all_dns_ips , connect to each returned IP address in sequence until a successful connection is established. After a disconnection, the IP is used. Once all IPs have been used once, the client resolves the IP(s) from the hostname again (both the JVM and the OS cache DNS name lookups, however). If set to resolve_canonical_bootstrap_servers_only , resolve each bootstrap address into a list of canonical names. After the bootstrap phase, this behaves the same as use_all_dns_ips . connections.max.idle.ms Type: long Default: 540000 (9 minutes) Importance: medium Close idle connections after the number of milliseconds specified by this config. connector.client.config.override.policy Type: string Default: All Importance: medium Class name or alias of implementation of ConnectorClientConfigOverridePolicy . Defines what client configurations can be overridden by the connector. The default implementation is All , meaning connector configurations can override all client properties. The other possible policies in the framework include None to disallow connectors from overriding client properties, and Principal to allow connectors to override only client principals. receive.buffer.bytes Type: int Default: 32768 (32 kibibytes) Valid Values: [-1,... ] Importance: medium The size of the TCP receive buffer (SO_RCVBUF) to use when reading data. If the value is -1, the OS default will be used. request.timeout.ms Type: int Default: 40000 (40 seconds) Valid Values: [0,... ] Importance: medium The configuration controls the maximum amount of time the client will wait for the response of a request. If the response is not received before the timeout elapses the client will resend the request if necessary or fail the request if retries are exhausted. sasl.client.callback.handler.class Type: class Default: null Importance: medium The fully qualified name of a SASL client callback handler class that implements the AuthenticateCallbackHandler interface. sasl.jaas.config Type: password Default: null Importance: medium JAAS login context parameters for SASL connections in the format used by JAAS configuration files. JAAS configuration file format is described here . The format for the value is: loginModuleClass controlFlag (optionName=optionValue)*; . For brokers, the config must be prefixed with listener prefix and SASL mechanism name in lower-case. For example, listener.name.sasl_ssl.scram-sha-256.sasl.jaas.config=com.example.ScramLoginModule required;. sasl.kerberos.service.name Type: string Default: null Importance: medium The Kerberos principal name that Kafka runs as. This can be defined either in Kafka's JAAS config or in Kafka's config. sasl.login.callback.handler.class Type: class Default: null Importance: medium The fully qualified name of a SASL login callback handler class that implements the AuthenticateCallbackHandler interface. For brokers, login callback handler config must be prefixed with listener prefix and SASL mechanism name in lower-case. For example, listener.name.sasl_ssl.scram-sha-256.sasl.login.callback.handler.class=com.example.CustomScramLoginCallbackHandler. sasl.login.class Type: class Default: null Importance: medium The fully qualified name of a class that implements the Login interface. For brokers, login config must be prefixed with listener prefix and SASL mechanism name in lower-case. For example, listener.name.sasl_ssl.scram-sha-256.sasl.login.class=com.example.CustomScramLogin. sasl.mechanism Type: string Default: GSSAPI Importance: medium SASL mechanism used for client connections. This may be any mechanism for which a security provider is available. GSSAPI is the default mechanism. sasl.oauthbearer.jwks.endpoint.url Type: string Default: null Importance: medium The OAuth/OIDC provider URL from which the provider's JWKS (JSON Web Key Set) can be retrieved. The URL can be HTTP(S)-based or file-based. If the URL is HTTP(S)-based, the JWKS data will be retrieved from the OAuth/OIDC provider via the configured URL on broker startup. All then-current keys will be cached on the broker for incoming requests. If an authentication request is received for a JWT that includes a "kid" header claim value that isn't yet in the cache, the JWKS endpoint will be queried again on demand. However, the broker polls the URL every sasl.oauthbearer.jwks.endpoint.refresh.ms milliseconds to refresh the cache with any forthcoming keys before any JWT requests that include them are received. If the URL is file-based, the broker will load the JWKS file from a configured location on startup. In the event that the JWT includes a "kid" header value that isn't in the JWKS file, the broker will reject the JWT and authentication will fail. sasl.oauthbearer.token.endpoint.url Type: string Default: null Importance: medium The URL for the OAuth/OIDC identity provider. If the URL is HTTP(S)-based, it is the issuer's token endpoint URL to which requests will be made to login based on the configuration in sasl.jaas.config. If the URL is file-based, it specifies a file containing an access token (in JWT serialized form) issued by the OAuth/OIDC identity provider to use for authorization. security.protocol Type: string Default: PLAINTEXT Valid Values: (case insensitive) [SASL_SSL, PLAINTEXT, SSL, SASL_PLAINTEXT] Importance: medium Protocol used to communicate with brokers. Valid values are: PLAINTEXT, SSL, SASL_PLAINTEXT, SASL_SSL. send.buffer.bytes Type: int Default: 131072 (128 kibibytes) Valid Values: [-1,... ] Importance: medium The size of the TCP send buffer (SO_SNDBUF) to use when sending data. If the value is -1, the OS default will be used. ssl.enabled.protocols Type: list Default: TLSv1.2,TLSv1.3 Importance: medium The list of protocols enabled for SSL connections. The default is 'TLSv1.2,TLSv1.3' when running with Java 11 or newer, 'TLSv1.2' otherwise. With the default value for Java 11, clients and servers will prefer TLSv1.3 if both support it and fallback to TLSv1.2 otherwise (assuming both support at least TLSv1.2). This default should be fine for most cases. Also see the config documentation for ssl.protocol . ssl.keystore.type Type: string Default: JKS Importance: medium The file format of the key store file. This is optional for client. The values currently supported by the default ssl.engine.factory.class are [JKS, PKCS12, PEM]. ssl.protocol Type: string Default: TLSv1.3 Importance: medium The SSL protocol used to generate the SSLContext. The default is 'TLSv1.3' when running with Java 11 or newer, 'TLSv1.2' otherwise. This value should be fine for most use cases. Allowed values in recent JVMs are 'TLSv1.2' and 'TLSv1.3'. 'TLS', 'TLSv1.1', 'SSL', 'SSLv2' and 'SSLv3' may be supported in older JVMs, but their usage is discouraged due to known security vulnerabilities. With the default value for this config and 'ssl.enabled.protocols', clients will downgrade to 'TLSv1.2' if the server does not support 'TLSv1.3'. If this config is set to 'TLSv1.2', clients will not use 'TLSv1.3' even if it is one of the values in ssl.enabled.protocols and the server only supports 'TLSv1.3'. ssl.provider Type: string Default: null Importance: medium The name of the security provider used for SSL connections. Default value is the default security provider of the JVM. ssl.truststore.type Type: string Default: JKS Importance: medium The file format of the trust store file. The values currently supported by the default ssl.engine.factory.class are [JKS, PKCS12, PEM]. worker.sync.timeout.ms Type: int Default: 3000 (3 seconds) Importance: medium When the worker is out of sync with other workers and needs to resynchronize configurations, wait up to this amount of time before giving up, leaving the group, and waiting a backoff period before rejoining. worker.unsync.backoff.ms Type: int Default: 300000 (5 minutes) Importance: medium When the worker is out of sync with other workers and fails to catch up within worker.sync.timeout.ms, leave the Connect cluster for this long before rejoining. access.control.allow.methods Type: string Default: "" Importance: low Sets the methods supported for cross origin requests by setting the Access-Control-Allow-Methods header. The default value of the Access-Control-Allow-Methods header allows cross origin requests for GET, POST and HEAD. access.control.allow.origin Type: string Default: "" Importance: low Value to set the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header to for REST API requests.To enable cross origin access, set this to the domain of the application that should be permitted to access the API, or '*' to allow access from any domain. The default value only allows access from the domain of the REST API. admin.listeners Type: list Default: null Valid Values: List of comma-separated URLs, ex: http://localhost:8080,https://localhost:8443 . Importance: low List of comma-separated URIs the Admin REST API will listen on. The supported protocols are HTTP and HTTPS. An empty or blank string will disable this feature. The default behavior is to use the regular listener (specified by the 'listeners' property). auto.include.jmx.reporter Type: boolean Default: true Importance: low Deprecated. Whether to automatically include JmxReporter even if it's not listed in metric.reporters . This configuration will be removed in Kafka 4.0, users should instead include org.apache.kafka.common.metrics.JmxReporter in metric.reporters in order to enable the JmxReporter. client.id Type: string Default: "" Importance: low An id string to pass to the server when making requests. The purpose of this is to be able to track the source of requests beyond just ip/port by allowing a logical application name to be included in server-side request logging. config.providers Type: list Default: "" Importance: low Comma-separated names of ConfigProvider classes, loaded and used in the order specified. Implementing the interface ConfigProvider allows you to replace variable references in connector configurations, such as for externalized secrets. config.storage.replication.factor Type: short Default: 3 Valid Values: Positive number not larger than the number of brokers in the Kafka cluster, or -1 to use the broker's default Importance: low Replication factor used when creating the configuration storage topic. connect.protocol Type: string Default: sessioned Valid Values: [eager, compatible, sessioned] Importance: low Compatibility mode for Kafka Connect Protocol. header.converter Type: class Default: org.apache.kafka.connect.storage.SimpleHeaderConverter Importance: low HeaderConverter class used to convert between Kafka Connect format and the serialized form that is written to Kafka. This controls the format of the header values in messages written to or read from Kafka, and since this is independent of connectors it allows any connector to work with any serialization format. Examples of common formats include JSON and Avro. By default, the SimpleHeaderConverter is used to serialize header values to strings and deserialize them by inferring the schemas. inter.worker.key.generation.algorithm Type: string Default: HmacSHA256 Valid Values: Any KeyGenerator algorithm supported by the worker JVM Importance: low The algorithm to use for generating internal request keys. The algorithm 'HmacSHA256' will be used as a default on JVMs that support it; on other JVMs, no default is used and a value for this property must be manually specified in the worker config. inter.worker.key.size Type: int Default: null Importance: low The size of the key to use for signing internal requests, in bits. If null, the default key size for the key generation algorithm will be used. inter.worker.key.ttl.ms Type: int Default: 3600000 (1 hour) Valid Values: [0,... ,2147483647] Importance: low The TTL of generated session keys used for internal request validation (in milliseconds). inter.worker.signature.algorithm Type: string Default: HmacSHA256 Valid Values: Any MAC algorithm supported by the worker JVM Importance: low The algorithm used to sign internal requestsThe algorithm 'inter.worker.signature.algorithm' will be used as a default on JVMs that support it; on other JVMs, no default is used and a value for this property must be manually specified in the worker config. inter.worker.verification.algorithms Type: list Default: HmacSHA256 Valid Values: A list of one or more MAC algorithms, each supported by the worker JVM Importance: low A list of permitted algorithms for verifying internal requests, which must include the algorithm used for the inter.worker.signature.algorithm property. The algorithm(s) '[HmacSHA256]' will be used as a default on JVMs that provide them; on other JVMs, no default is used and a value for this property must be manually specified in the worker config. listeners Type: list Default: http://:8083 Valid Values: List of comma-separated URLs, ex: http://localhost:8080,https://localhost:8443 . Importance: low List of comma-separated URIs the REST API will listen on. The supported protocols are HTTP and HTTPS. Specify hostname as 0.0.0.0 to bind to all interfaces.

This property has no effect for source connectors running with exactly-once support. offset.storage.partitions Type: int Default: 25 Valid Values: Positive number, or -1 to use the broker's default Importance: low The number of partitions used when creating the offset storage topic. offset.storage.replication.factor Type: short Default: 3 Valid Values: Positive number not larger than the number of brokers in the Kafka cluster, or -1 to use the broker's default Importance: low Replication factor used when creating the offset storage topic. plugin.discovery Type: string Default: hybrid_warn Valid Values: (case insensitive) [ONLY_SCAN, SERVICE_LOAD, HYBRID_WARN, HYBRID_FAIL] Importance: low Method to use to discover plugins present in the classpath and plugin.path configuration. This can be one of multiple values with the following meanings: * only_scan: Discover plugins only by reflection. Plugins which are not discoverable by ServiceLoader will not impact worker startup. * hybrid_warn: Discover plugins reflectively and by ServiceLoader. Plugins which are not discoverable by ServiceLoader will print warnings during worker startup. * hybrid_fail: Discover plugins reflectively and by ServiceLoader. Plugins which are not discoverable by ServiceLoader will cause worker startup to fail. * service_load: Discover plugins only by ServiceLoader. Faster startup than other modes. Plugins which are not discoverable by ServiceLoader may not be usable. plugin.path Type: list Default: null Importance: low List of paths separated by commas (,) that contain plugins (connectors, converters, transformations). The list should consist of top level directories that include any combination of: a) directories immediately containing jars with plugins and their dependencies b) uber-jars with plugins and their dependencies c) directories immediately containing the package directory structure of classes of plugins and their dependencies Note: symlinks will be followed to discover dependencies or plugins. Examples: plugin.path=/usr/local/share/java,/usr/local/share/kafka/plugins,/opt/connectors Do not use config provider variables in this property, since the raw path is used by the worker's scanner before config providers are initialized and used to replace variables. reconnect.backoff.max.ms Type: long Default: 1000 (1 second) Valid Values: [0,... ] Importance: low The maximum amount of time in milliseconds to wait when reconnecting to a broker that has repeatedly failed to connect. If provided, the backoff per host will increase exponentially for each consecutive connection failure, up to this maximum. After calculating the backoff increase, 20% random jitter is added to avoid connection storms. reconnect.backoff.ms Type: long Default: 50 Valid Values: [0,... ] Importance: low The base amount of time to wait before attempting to reconnect to a given host. This avoids repeatedly connecting to a host in a tight loop. This backoff applies to all connection attempts by the client to a broker.

Typically used to add custom capability like logging, security, etc. retry.backoff.max.ms Type: long Default: 1000 (1 second) Valid Values: [0,... ] Importance: low The maximum amount of time in milliseconds to wait when retrying a request to the broker that has repeatedly failed. If provided, the backoff per client will increase exponentially for each failed request, up to this maximum. To prevent all clients from being synchronized upon retry, a randomized jitter with a factor of 0.2 will be applied to the backoff, resulting in the backoff falling within a range between 20% below and 20% above the computed value. If retry.backoff.ms is set to be higher than retry.backoff.max.ms , then retry.backoff.max.ms will be used as a constant backoff from the beginning without any exponential increase. retry.backoff.ms Type: long Default: 100 Valid Values: [0,... ] Importance: low The amount of time to wait before attempting to retry a failed request to a given topic partition. This avoids repeatedly sending requests in a tight loop under some failure scenarios.

The JWT will be inspected for the standard OAuth "aud" claim and if this value is set, the broker will match the value from JWT's "aud" claim to see if there is an exact match. If there is no match, the broker will reject the JWT and authentication will fail. sasl.oauthbearer.expected.issuer Type: string Default: null Importance: low The (optional) setting for the broker to use to verify that the JWT was created by the expected issuer. The JWT will be inspected for the standard OAuth "iss" claim and if this value is set, the broker will match it exactly against what is in the JWT's "iss" claim.

If the connection is not built before the timeout elapses, clients will close the socket channel. This value is the initial backoff value and will increase exponentially for each consecutive connection failure, up to the socket.connection.setup.timeout.max.ms value. ssl.cipher.suites Type: list Default: null Importance: low A list of cipher suites. This is a named combination of authentication, encryption, MAC and key exchange algorithm used to negotiate the security settings for a network connection using TLS or SSL network protocol. By default all the available cipher suites are supported. ssl.client.auth Type: string Default: none Valid Values: [required, requested, none] Importance: low Configures kafka broker to request client authentication. The following settings are common: ssl.client.auth=required If set to required client authentication is required. ssl.client.auth=requested This means client authentication is optional. unlike required, if this option is set client can choose not to provide authentication information about itself ssl.client.auth=none This means client authentication is not needed. ssl.endpoint.identification.algorithm Type: string Default: https Importance: low The endpoint identification algorithm to validate server hostname using server certificate. ssl.engine.factory.class Type: class Default: null Importance: low The class of type org.apache.kafka.common.security.auth.SslEngineFactory to provide SSLEngine objects. Default value is org.apache.kafka.common.security.ssl.DefaultSslEngineFactory. Alternatively, setting this to org.apache.kafka.common.security.ssl.CommonNameLoggingSslEngineFactory will log the common name of expired SSL certificates used by clients to authenticate at any of the brokers with log level INFO. Note that this will cause a tiny delay during establishment of new connections from mTLS clients to brokers due to the extra code for examining the certificate chain provided by the client. Note further that the implementation uses a custom truststore based on the standard Java truststore and thus might be considered a security risk due to not being as mature as the standard one. ssl.keymanager.algorithm Type: string Default: SunX509 Importance: low The algorithm used by key manager factory for SSL connections. Default value is the key manager factory algorithm configured for the Java Virtual Machine. ssl.secure.random.implementation Type: string Default: null Importance: low The SecureRandom PRNG implementation to use for SSL cryptography operations. ssl.trustmanager.algorithm Type: string Default: PKIX Importance: low The algorithm used by trust manager factory for SSL connections. Default value is the trust manager factory algorithm configured for the Java Virtual Machine. status.storage.partitions Type: int Default: 5 Valid Values: Positive number, or -1 to use the broker's default Importance: low The number of partitions used when creating the status storage topic. status.storage.replication.factor Type: short Default: 3 Valid Values: Positive number not larger than the number of brokers in the Kafka cluster, or -1 to use the broker's default Importance: low Replication factor used when creating the status storage topic. task.shutdown.graceful.timeout.ms Type: long Default: 5000 (5 seconds) Importance: low Amount of time to wait for tasks to shutdown gracefully. This is the total amount of time, not per task. All task have shutdown triggered, then they are waited on sequentially. topic.creation.enable Type: boolean Default: true Importance: low Whether to allow automatic creation of topics used by source connectors, when source connectors are configured with topic.creation. properties. Each task will use an admin client to create its topics and will not depend on the Kafka brokers to create topics automatically. topic.tracking.allow.reset Type: boolean Default: true Importance: low If set to true, it allows user requests to reset the set of active topics per connector. topic.tracking.enable Type: boolean Default: true Importance: low Enable tracking the set of active topics per connector during runtime.
