    Hi @Rishal, to sum up and in addition to the link provided by @SasikumarSP:
    Solace is primarily a Pub Sub broker and bridging is based on topics, so you have to send your message to a topic that is bridged in order to send it over that bridge.
    The main question to answer if you were able to send to the bridge queue directly would be:
    Where do you want the message to go after it's been send over the bridge?
    You see, the broker would not have sufficient information to complete the bridging in this case (without further information).
    If you send your message to a topic that is configured for bridging, then the broker (or actually the bridge user) will republish the message to that topic on the other broker or VPN.
    Makes sense?

    Btw, if you want to send to a specific queue on another VPN without publishing to the larger topic space, take a look at the network topic each queue automatically has "#P2P/QUE/queueName", see https://docs.solace.com/PubSub-Basics/Reserved-Topics.htm. You could add that to your bridge as well.

    Cheers,
