# MessageGroupingStrategy

The connector, by default, creates documents that contain a single message. You can configure the connector to create documents that contain groups of messages.

This parameter specifies the strategy to use for grouping messages into documents:

- `None` - Start a new document after every message.
- `MessageCount` - Start a new document after a fixed number of messages, specified by MessageGroupingMessageCount.
- `Interval` - Start a new document after processing messages sent within a fixed time duration, specified by MessageGroupingInterval.
- `QuietWindow` - Start a new document when there is an interval between messages, greater than the MessageGroupingQuietWindow.
- `Hybrid` - Group messages using all of the previous strategies (except `None`). The connector produces the smallest possible groups. For example, the connector might produce a document with fewer messages than specified by MessageGroupingMessageCount if the MessageGroupingInterval is reached first.

Type: | String
Default: | None
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | TaskName or FetchTasks
Example: | In the following example, the connector can produce documents that contain multiple messages. Each document will contain no more than 200 messages, and those messages will span a maximum of 1 hour. Finally, there will be no more than 5 minutes between each message.
    MessageGroupingStrategy=Hybrid
    MessageGroupingMessageCount=200
    MessageGroupingInterval=1 hour
    MessageGroupingQuietWindow=5 mins
