Retrying problem with failed request

[rebaz94]

Hi, I have two problem when request failed.

1. When I send a request with specified Upstash-Retries header, the Upstash will retry failed request more than specified retries.

for example I set 3 retries and at first the console shows correct retrying number like 2/3 but after some time it will send another request which will be 4 request in total.

2. When I send a request with specified Upstash-Deduplication-Id header and the request is failed, I can't publish new message with same id, even if all request is already failed, it will ignore the message.

does it's expected? or how I publish new message that has same failed id but start from scratch?

Thank you

1. Retries are counted after the first delivery fails, it's not the total number of attempts made If you want 3 total requests, you should set Upstash-Retries: 2

2. That's how deduplication works, it just prevents you from publishing the same message twice, it does not make any guarantees about successful delivery We'll make the deduplication window configurable soon, currently it's set to 90 days

You mean by configuring window time for example 5 minute, after that you can publish new message with same id?

@chronark do you have any api to get number of failed request for a specified message? or you need to use logs api and manually calculate failed request?

[chronark]

Yes you could set it to X minutes/hours/days and afterwards you can reuse the ID.

No currently the logs is all there is.
