# MSMQ Transport connection strings

<!-- Version variant: msmqtransport_1; default: [/transports/msmq/connection-strings.md](/transports/msmq/connection-strings.md) -->


> [!WARNING]
> Passing in the connection string is no longer supported. If the connection string is passed, an exception will be thrown at endpoint start-up.

[Explicit API](/transports/msmq/transportconfig.md) has now been added in the transport configuration for each of these options.
