+If using AWS SQS, you need to create queues for each environment, and update the env vars as follows:
+
+```dotenv
+QUEUE_CONNECTION=sqs
+SQS_QUEUE="queue-name-${APP_ENV}" # eg ofn-vine-uk-local as set in AWS SQS
+SQS_PREFIX=https://sqs.${AWS_DEFAULT_REGION}.amazonaws.com/[YOUR-AWS-ACCOUNT-ID]
+```
+You'll also need to run at least one properly configured queue worker on your server environment for this to work.

 ```
 
 This runs the API middleware through `CheckForAnyTokenAbilities`, checking the incoming personal access token for the
