Receive messages from an Amazon SQS Queue

:::note
**Receive Messages** can behave differently depending on what kind of queue you are trying to poll.
If you are using a non-FIFO queue, this action may return [false blank responses](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSSimpleQueueService/latest/APIReference/API_ReceiveMessage.html).
SNS FIFO is intended for customer use cases where it is critical to maintain the consistency in processing messages across multiple independent services in a strictly ordered manner.
If you are polling a FIFO queue you are guaranteed to receive the maximum amount of messages you specify (up to 10) per request.
Refer to the AWS docs for information on migrating to a [FIFO queue](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/en_us/AWSSimpleQueueService/latest/SQSDeveloperGuide/moving-from-high-throughout-queue-to-FIFO-queue.html)
:::


An AWS IAM [access key pair](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_access-keys.html) is required to interact with Amazon SQS.
Make sure that the key pair you generate in AWS has proper permissions to the SQS resources you want to access.
Read more about SQS IAM policies in the [AWS docs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSSimpleQueueService/latest/SQSDeveloperGuide/sqs-authentication-and-access-control.html).


To enable the IAM role authentication begin by logging into the [AWS Console](https://aws.amazon.com/) and navigate to Identity and Access Management (IAM).

To create an ARN user and generate credentials:

1. Navigate to Users and select **Create User**.

-   Provide a User name and check the box providing them user access to the AWS Management Console if needed.
-   Once completed with the User creation, copy the ARN provided in the summary for a later step.

2. To obtain the ARN for an existing User, click on the designated username from the Users page and the ARN will be provided in the summary section.
3. From the summary section, select **Create access key**

-   Select **Third-party service** as the access key type and select next.
-   Set a description and select **create access key**.
-   Copy the **Access Key** and **Secret access key** and enter those into the connection configuration of your integration along with the ARN.

To create and assign a user a role:

1. Navigate to Roles and select **Create Role**.

-   Select **Custom Trust Policy** for the Trusted entity types
-   Copy the following statement into the statement console. Making sure to replace the **ARN** with the user's actual ARN from the previous section

```json
{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Principal": {
                "AWS": "ARN"
            },
            "Action": "sts:AssumeRole"
        }
    ]
}
```

-   When adding permissions provide the **AmazonSQSFullAccess** permission
-   Complete remaining steps and select **Create Role**
