Dead Lettering

If a task fails repeatedly, it will be moved to a dead letter queue after a configurable number of attempts. This allows you to inspect and handle failed tasks separately, without blocking the processing of other tasks.

For the storage queue backend, the dead letter queue is a queue with the same name as the tasks queue with the string “-failed” appended to it.

JobQ does not do anything with the tasks in the dead letter queue, it’s up to you to inspect and handle them.
