Does google iot-core support MQTT WILL messages

Question

I was wondering if google iot core support will messages concept. I tried to set will message for topic events on the device (devices\device-id\events) but had no luck with it... any ideas?

Answer 1

If you mean the Last Will and Testament Message, then no it is not supported by Google IOT Core. Quite sad because it is a very useful feature.

https://cloud.google.com/iot/docs/requirements#mqtt_bridge

The following features are not supported:

MQTT QoS 2

Arbitrary MQTT topics and subscriptions.

Last Will and Testament (LWT)

Retained messages

Persistent sessions
