Azure Service Bus
Detailed documentation on the Azure Service Bus pubsub component
Component format
To setup Azure Service Bus pubsub create a component of type pubsub.azure.servicebus
. See this guide on how to create and apply a pubsub configuration.

# - name: timeoutInSec # Optional
# value: 60
# - name: handlerTimeoutInSec # Optional
# value: 60

# value: 2
# - name: publishMaxRetries # Optional
# value: 5
# - name: publishInitialRetryInternalInMs # Optional
# value: 500
NOTE: The above settings are shared across all topics that use this component.
Warning
The above example uses secrets as plain strings. It is recommended to use a secret store for the secrets as described here.
Spec metadata fields
Field | Required | Details | Example |
---|---|---|---|
connectionString | Y | Shared access policy connection-string for the Service Bus | “Endpoint=sb://{ServiceBusNamespace}.servicebus.windows.net/;SharedAccessKeyName={PolicyName};SharedAccessKey={Key};EntityPath={ServiceBus} ” |
timeoutInSec | N | Timeout for sending messages and management operations. Default: 60 | 30 |
handlerTimeoutInSec | N | Timeout for invoking app handler. # Optional. Default: 60 | 30 |
disableEntityManagement | N | When set to true, topics and subscriptions do not get created automatically. Default: “false” | “true” , “false” |
maxDeliveryCount | N | Defines the number of attempts the server will make to deliver a message. Default set by server | 10 |
lockDurationInSec | N | Defines the length in seconds that a message will be locked for before expiring. Default set by server | 30 |
lockRenewalInSec | N | Defines the frequency at which buffered message locks will be renewed. Default: 20 . | 20 |
maxActiveMessages | N | Defines the maximum number of messages to be buffered or processing at once. Default: 10000 | 2000 |
maxActiveMessagesRecoveryInSec | N | Defines the number of seconds to wait once the maximum active message limit is reached. Default: 2 | 10 |
maxConcurrentHandlers | N | Defines the maximum number of concurrent message handlers | 10 |
prefetchCount | N | Defines the number of prefetched messages (use for high throughput / low latency scenarios) | 5 |
defaultMessageTimeToLiveInSec | N | Default message time to live. | 10 |
autoDeleteOnIdleInSec | N | Time in seconds to wait before auto deleting messages. | 10 |
maxReconnectionAttempts | N | Defines the maximum number of reconnect attempts. Default: 30 | 30 |
connectionRecoveryInSec | N | Time in seconds to wait between connection recovery attempts. Defaults: 2 | 2 |
publishMaxRetries | N | The max number of retries for when Azure Service Bus responds with “too busy” in order to throttle messages. Defaults: 5 | 5 |
publishInitialRetryInternalInMs | N | Time in milliseconds for the initial exponential backoff when Azure Service Bus throttle messages. Defaults: 500 | 500 |
Message metadata
Azure Service Bus messages extend the Dapr message format with additional contextual metadata. Some metadata fields are set by Azure Service Bus itself (read-only) and others can be set by the client when publishing a message.
Sending a message with metadata
To set Azure Service Bus metadata when sending a message, set the query parameters on the HTTP request or the gRPC metadata as documented here.
metadata.MessageId
metadata.CorrelationId
metadata.SessionId
metadata.Label
metadata.ReplyTo
metadata.PartitionKey
metadata.To
metadata.ContentType
metadata.ScheduledEnqueueTimeUtc
metadata.ReplyToSessionId
NOTE: The
metadata.MessageId
property does not set theid
property of the cloud event and should be treated in isolation.
Receiving a message with metadata
When Dapr calls your application, it will attach Azure Service Bus message metadata to the request using either HTTP headers or gRPC metadata. In addition to the settable metadata listed above, you can also access the following read-only message metadata.
metadata.DeliveryCount
metadata.LockedUntilUtc
metadata.LockToken
metadata.EnqueuedTimeUtc
metadata.SequenceNumber
To find out more details on the purpose of any of these metadata properties, please refer to the official Azure Service Bus documentation.
