Full documentation can be found on [azure.com](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-bindings-event-hubs). ## Event Hubs Events ### Event Hubs Trigger This setup specifies that the `hello` function should be run when a new Event Hubs item appears on the path "hello". Here's an example: ```yml # serverless.yml functions: example: handler: handler.hello events: - eventHub: name: item #, default - "myEventHubMessage", specifies which name is available on `context.bindings` path: hello #, specifies the Name of the Event Hub consumerGroup: $Default #, default - "$Default", specifies the consumerGroup to listen with connection: EventHubsConnection #, App Setting/environment variable which contains Event Hubs Namespace Connection String ``` ```javascript // handler.js 'use strict'; module.exports.hello = function (context, item) { context.log('Received item: ${item}'); context.done(); }; ```
