## Signature

`SimpleEvent routeTo(SimpleEvent event, String destinationPath, String properties) {`

## Domain

ACTION, BUI

## Description

Sends a SimpleEvent to a Destination with custom destination properties. The Destination in turn specifies the Channel where the Event will be sent.

## Parameters

Name | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
`event` | `SimpleEvent` | The simpleEvent to be sent.
`destinationPath` | `String` | The path to the Destination that will be used to send the Event. E.G. "/MyChannel/MyDestination" where MyChannel is the Channel in the model and MyDestination is the destination in it.
`properties` | `String` | A list of property name-value pairs in the format `[name1=value1;name2=value2;...;]` When present in the name or value each character [`=, or \`] should be escaped with two antislash [`\` ] characters. E.G. 2=1+1 should be written as `2\\=1+1` and `2\3\4` should be written as `2\\\\3\\\\4.`

## Returns

Type | Description
--- | ---
`SimpleEvent` | The same value as the argument evt, or null if there was an error.

## Cautions

Custom channels may not support overriding of destination properties.
