Working through Topics and Queues
The Destination button on the left navigation bar contains links to access the Topics page and the Queues page in addition to links to the Durables and Bridges pages. After you get to the page, you can drill down further to see more details. For example, if you choose to see the Topics page, you can drill down into an individual topic by clicking on a topic name in the list.
