How do you send/receive messages in Azure Queue using .NET?

Short answer: Use Azure.Storage.Queues package. Send message: var queueClient = new QueueClient(connectionString, "myqueue"); await queueClient.CreateIfNotExistsAsync(); await queueClient.SendMessageAsync("Hello, Azure Queue!"); Receive message: var message = await queueClient.ReceiveMessageAsync(); Console.WriteLine(message.Value.MessageText); await queueClient.DeleteMessageAsync(message.Value.MessageId,…

Example code

Use Azure.Storage.Queues package. Send message: var queueClient = new QueueClient(connectionString, "myqueue");
await queueClient.CreateIfNotExistsAsync();
await queueClient.SendMessageAsync("Hello, Azure Queue!"); Receive message: var message = await queueClient.ReceiveMessageAsync(); Console.WriteLine(message.Value.MessageText); await queueClient.DeleteMessageAsync(message.Value.MessageId, message.Value.PopReceipt);

Real-world example (ShopNest)

Order-paid events go to Service Bus; an Azure Function sends the confirmation email asynchronously.

Say this in the interview

1. Define — one clear sentence (the short answer above).
2. Example — relate it to a project like ShopNest or your real work.
3. Trade-off — when you would not use it.
