+# Workflow Message Queue (WMQ)
+
+Send messages to a running workflow and process them inside the workflow using the
+`PULL_WORKFLOW_MESSAGES` system task.
+
+## Server requirement
+
+WMQ must be enabled on the Conductor server:
+
+```properties
+conductor.workflow-message-queue.enabled=true
+```
+
+---
+
+## Sending a message
+
+After starting (or executing) a workflow you can push any JSON-serialisable dict
+to it using `executor.send_message` or `workflow_client.send_message`.
+
+```python
+from conductor.client.configuration.configuration import Configuration
+from conductor.client.http.models import StartWorkflowRequest
+from conductor.client.workflow.executor.workflow_executor import WorkflowExecutor
+
+config = Configuration()  # reads CONDUCTOR_SERVER_URL / CONDUCTOR_AUTH_TOKEN from env
+executor = WorkflowExecutor(config)
+
+# --- start a workflow that has a PULL_WORKFLOW_MESSAGES task in it ---
+workflow_id = executor.start_workflow(
+    StartWorkflowRequest(name="order_processing", input={"orderId": "ORD-42"})
+)
+
+# --- send a message to the running workflow ---
+message_id = executor.send_message(
+    workflow_id,
+    {"event": "payment_confirmed", "amount": 99.99, "currency": "USD"},
+)
+print(f"Message enqueued: {message_id}")
+```
+
+You can call `send_message` multiple times; each call returns a unique UUID.
+
+```python
+# Send a batch of status updates
+for status in ["PICKED", "SHIPPED", "OUT_FOR_DELIVERY"]:
+    executor.send_message(workflow_id, {"status": status})
+```
+
+---
+
+## Defining a workflow that receives messages
+
+Use `PullWorkflowMessagesTask` inside your workflow definition to consume the queue.
+
+```python
+from conductor.client.workflow.conductor_workflow import ConductorWorkflow
+from conductor.client.workflow.task.pull_workflow_messages_task import PullWorkflowMessagesTask
+from conductor.client.workflow.task.simple_task import SimpleTask
+
+# Pull up to 5 messages at a time
+pull = PullWorkflowMessagesTask(task_ref_name="pull_messages", batch_size=5)
+
+process = SimpleTask(
+    task_def_name="process_message_worker",
+    task_reference_name="process_message",
+)
+# Pass pulled messages to the next task via input parameter references
+process.input_parameters["messages"] = "${pull_messages.output.messages}"
+
+wf = (
+    ConductorWorkflow(executor=executor, name="order_processing", version=1)
+    .add(pull)
+    .add(process)
+)
+
+wf.register(overwrite=True)
+```
+
+### Task output shape
+
+When messages are available the `PULL_WORKFLOW_MESSAGES` task output looks like:
+
+```json
+{
+  "messages": [
+    {
+      "id": "f3c2a1b0-...",
+      "workflowId": "<workflow-instance-id>",
+      "payload": { "event": "payment_confirmed", "amount": 99.99 },
+      "receivedAt": "2024-01-01T12:00:00Z"
+    }
+  ],
+  "count": 1
+}
+```
+
+Reference individual fields in subsequent tasks:
+
+```python
+next_task.input_parameters["firstMessage"] = "${pull_messages.output.messages[0].payload}"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Using the low-level client directly
+
+If you prefer the `WorkflowClient` directly:
+
+```python
+from conductor.client.orkes_clients import OrkesClients
+
+clients = OrkesClients(config)
+workflow_client = clients.get_workflow_client()
+
+message_id = workflow_client.send_message(
+    workflow_id,
+    {"type": "notification", "text": "Hello from outside the workflow"},
+)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Error handling
+
+| HTTP status | Reason | What to do |
+|-------------|--------|------------|
+| `404 Not Found` | Workflow ID does not exist | Verify the workflow was started successfully |
+| `409 Conflict` | Workflow is not `RUNNING` | Check workflow status before sending |
+| `429 Too Many Requests` | Queue is at capacity (default 1 000 messages) | Back off and retry, or increase `conductor.workflow-message-queue.maxQueueSize` |
+
+```python
+from conductor.client.http.rest import ApiException
+
+try:
+    executor.send_message(workflow_id, {"ping": True})
+except ApiException as e:
+    if e.status == 404:
+        print("Workflow not found")
+    elif e.status == 409:
+        print("Workflow is not running")
+    elif e.status == 429:
+        print("Queue full — back off and retry")
+    else:
+        raise
+```
