# Creating a SQS queue in AWS #

This example shows how to set up a SQS queue in AWS. The values provided in the
template match the default values from the [AWS::SQS::Queue][sqs] resource. If
you leave a property blank, it will use the default value.

Run `convetion diff` to see what the template will create.

Run `convection converge` to create the example SQS queue.
