Hi Meeiling, It sounds like "formal process" is more like "fill out a form beforehand" than just "access controlled".
In that case, although it's somewhat of an internal detail, I think the easiest thing would be to figure out what the name of the internal topics will be and request their creation before you run the app. The names of the internal topics is predictable, based on the application id and the app topology, and it will be stable as long as you don't change the app. I think the simplest approach would be to run it locally and just see which topics get created. Does that help? -John On Tue, Sep 4, 2018 at 10:07 PM Meeiling.Bradley < meeiling.brad...@target.com> wrote: > Would I be able to run a Kafka streams application contains join > KStream-KStream that consumes and produces to a Kafka cluster that has a > formal process to provision topics creation?
