public sealed class DeadLetterPolicy : IMessage<DeadLetterPolicy>, IEquatable<DeadLetterPolicy>, IDeepCloneable<DeadLetterPolicy>, IBufferMessage, IMessage
Reference documentation and code samples for the Cloud Pub/Sub v1 API class DeadLetterPolicy.
Dead lettering is done on a best effort basis. The same message might be
dead lettered multiple times.
If validation on any of the fields fails at subscription creation/updation,
the create/update subscription request will fail.
Optional. The name of the topic to which dead letter messages should be
published. Format is projects/{project}/topics/{topic}.The Pub/Sub
service account associated with the enclosing subscription's parent project
(i.e., service-{project_number}@gcp-sa-pubsub.iam.gserviceaccount.com) must
have permission to Publish() to this topic.
The operation will fail if the topic does not exist.
Users should ensure that there is a subscription attached to this topic
since messages published to a topic with no subscriptions are lost.
Optional. The maximum number of delivery attempts for any message. The
value must be between 5 and 100.
The number of delivery attempts is defined as 1 + (the sum of number of
NACKs and number of times the acknowledgement deadline has been exceeded
for the message).
A NACK is any call to ModifyAckDeadline with a 0 deadline. Note that
client libraries may automatically extend ack_deadlines.
This field will be honored on a best effort basis.
If this parameter is 0, a default value of 5 is used.
