Happy May 1st,

I'm doing a simple POC to utilize the dead letter topic feature of PusSub. I configured my subscription to republish messages to a separate dead letter topic after 20 Maximum delivery attempts (below is the subscription pull code and sample message used).

Problem/challenge: Even after 36 delivery attempts the test message is still not republished to the dead letter topic. Based on the documentation I would assume my test message will be republished to the dead letter topic and shouldn't be delivered after 20 attempts. What am I missing?

Here is the code I'm using

Thanks for your help.

Hi, Kumar,

Thanks for reporting this.  That's is certainly not the expected behavior.  If you have an option of filing a support case, please do.  This will ensure we don't drop this.  But either way, let's investigate.  Can you share your code? Or at least the part that prints the output?   Could you share  the full id of the topic and subscription?

Best,

Kir
