Can I bind a queue from a different vhost?

Question

I have an exchange with a vhost, user, etc from that exchange I bind different queues. The exchange and the queues are in the same vhost. Now I want to create a different vhost for a different queue but I cannot bind this new queue from the previous exchange as It is in different vhost.

What is the best solution for that? Thanks

Your requirement is typically done using the federation or shovel plugins. For your requirement a federated exchange seems the more appropriate.

If I quote your question by naming vhost:

The exchange and the queues are in the same vhost A. Now I want to create a different vhost B for a different queue but I cannot bind this new queue from the previous exchange as It is in different vhost.

• You create a federated exchange on vhost B
• This exchange is linked to upstream exchange on vhost A
• The new queue on vhost B is bound to this federated exchange.
