Hello! I would be interested in FIFO
Hello! I would be interested in FIFO ordering and also interested to know if you are going to support something like AWS SQS Message Group ID?
I tried to send an email to [email protected] as specified in the docs (https://developers.cloudflare.com/queues/configuration/javascript-apis/#messagebatch) but that bounced.
Thanks!

hey! thank you - I need to update the email in those docs. we're still thinking about FIFO queues, but candidly, it's not on the roadmap at the moment. we are thinking about a couple of ways to implement something like message group IDs, although we're not sure if we will support ordered groups. I'm curious, what's the use case you have in mind?
thanks for the answer @Pranshu Maheshwari!
Regarding message groups, we often use them to parallelize message processing between customers. So, if Customer A generates 1,000 messages and shortly after, Customer B + C generates only a few, all are processed simultaneously, ensuring balanced handling time for each. FIFO is not strictly required for most of our cases. I'll play around with queues to see what I can come up with 🙂 Thanks again!
