How do you start a worker from the UI?

I've tried setting sqs as connection, leaving queue empty, writing full sqs url, just queue name, default..

simple artisan queue:work does the job but starting from the UI seems impossible

@velja You don’t start queue workers from any UI. Queue workers are part of your application, not SQS.

You need to run php artisan queue:work on the server you deploy your Laravel application to. You’ll also need to use something like Supervisor to reboot your queue worker process if it stops for any reason.

Maybe have a read over https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/queues#running-the-queue-worker to learn more how queue workers work.
