Migrating to Ably from an existing service
Can I make changes to a queue after it has been created?
Unfortunately not, queues are immutable.
Your only option therefore is as follows:
- Create a new queue in the app dashboard
- Configure your queue clients to subscribe to the old and new queues
- Change your queue rule in the app dashboard to push messages into the new queue
- Wait till the old queue has been drained completely (i.e. no messages in the queue)
- Delete your old queue
