DLQs are only available in v2
Sometimes your API will fail to process a request. This could be due to a bug in your code, a temporary issue with a third-party service or event network issues. QStash automatically retries messages that fail due to a temporary issue but eventually stops and moves the message to a dead letter queue to be handled manually. Read more about retries here.

​
How to use the dead letter queue

You can manually republish messages from the dead letter queue in the console, API access will be added soon.
  1. Redrive - Republish the message and remove it from the dead letter queue. Republished messages are just like any other message and will be retried automatically if they fail.
  2. Delete - Delete the message from the dead letter queue.

​
Limitations

Dead letter queues are limited to a certain number messages. If you exceed this limit, the oldest messages will be dropped. Unhandled messages are evicted after some time. See the pricing page for more information.
