State

State lists all the possible states of a Channel

Enums
STATE_UNSPECIFIED Default value. This value is unused.
PENDING The PENDING state indicates that a Channel has been created successfully and there is a new activation token available for the subscriber to use to convey the Channel to the provider in order to create a Connection.
ACTIVE The ACTIVE state indicates that a Channel has been successfully connected with the event provider. An ACTIVE Channel is ready to receive and route events from the event provider.
INACTIVE

The INACTIVE state indicates that the Channel cannot receive events permanently. There are two possible cases this state can happen:

  1. The SaaS provider disconnected from this Channel.
  2. The Channel activation token has expired but the SaaS provider wasn't connected.

To re-establish a Connection with a provider, the subscriber should create a new Channel and give it to the provider.
