Issue with Consumer ID in Dapr Topic Subscription

[mshashi0306]

I'm working with a Dapr application, and I'm having trouble with my topic subscription setup in the following code:

builder.MapControllerRoute("ReceiveFeedEvent", "/ReceiveFeedEvent").WithTopic(new TopicOptions { PubsubName = Config.DaprAlertFeedConsumerName, Name = configuration[Config.AlertFeedTopicNameKey], Metadata = new Dictionary<string, string>() { { "consumerID","feed"} } });

I'm using this configuration to set up a route that receives events from a specified topic. However, it seems that the consumerID I specified in the metadata does not work as expected.

Kindly help if there is a specific format or requirement for the consumerID in Dapr subscriptions?

I am trying to subscribe multiple subscription under one topic using Dapr.

I believe the consumer ID should be populated in the YAML component's metadata field as indicated in the Azure Service Bus Topic component spec, not in the topic options in the C# project.

@mshashi0306 Have you had an opportunity to try out my suggestion?

[mshashi0306]

Yes @WhitWaldo , I have tried adding the consumerId to the YAML file, but it requires creating multiple service bus component files for each subscription.

I’m looking to have a single YAML file without the consumerId, as I have multiple subscriptions under one topic.

Could you please help with this?

I've raised your question on Discord in hopes someone there knows as I'm afraid I don't immediately see how you'd pass the consumer ID in any but a declarative instance.
