How to seek/rewind Azure ServiceBus topic subscription


We are consuming messages from Azure ServiceBus topic subscription. We don't own or manage the topic, we are just consumers. We would like to access previously consumed messages.

I did not found a way using API. I don't know if it is possible maybe for owner of topic.

Is it possible somehow seek backward / rewind topic subscription position and replay previous messages that are maybe still in topic ?


Solution

  • A topic subscription is basically like a queue, once a message is completed it's gone. It's not like Event Hub where you can choose what event to start from in a partition.
