An application can either query this value or attempt to set it with its list of required features to check for library support.
Type: CSV flags
client.id*rdkafkalowClient identifier.
Type: string
metadata.broker.list*highInitial list of brokers as a CSV list of broker host or host:port. The application may also use rd_kafka_brokers_add() to add brokers during runtime.
Type: string
bootstrap.servers*highAlias for metadata.broker.list: Initial list of brokers as a CSV list of broker host or host:port. The application may also use rd_kafka_brokers_add() to add brokers during runtime.
Type: string
message.max.bytes*1000 … 10000000001000000mediumMaximum Kafka protocol request message size. Due to differing framing overhead between protocol versions the producer is unable to reliably enforce a strict max message limit at produce time and may exceed the maximum size by one message in protocol ProduceRequests, the broker will enforce the the topic’s max.message.bytes limit (see Apache Kafka documentation).
Type: integer
message.copy.max.bytes*0 … 100000000065535lowMaximum size for message to be copied to buffer. Messages larger than this will be passed by reference (zero-copy) at the expense of larger iovecs.
Type: integer
receive.message.max.bytes*1000 … 2147483647100000000mediumMaximum Kafka protocol response message size. This serves as a safety precaution to avoid memory exhaustion in case of protocol hickups. This value must be at least fetch.max.bytes + 512 to allow for protocol overhead; the value is adjusted automatically unless the configuration property is explicitly set.
Type: integer
max.in.flight.requests.per.connection*1 … 10000001000000lowMaximum number of in-flight requests per broker connection. This is a generic property applied to all broker communication, however it is primarily relevant to produce requests. In particular, note that other mechanisms limit the number of outstanding consumer fetch request per broker to one.
Type: integer
max.in.flight*1 … 10000001000000lowAlias for max.in.flight.requests.per.connection: Maximum number of in-flight requests per broker connection. This is a generic property applied to all broker communication, however it is primarily relevant to produce requests. In particular, note that other mechanisms limit the number of outstanding consumer fetch request per broker to one.
Type: integer
topic.metadata.refresh.interval.ms*-1 … 3600000300000lowPeriod of time in milliseconds at which topic and broker metadata is refreshed in order to proactively discover any new brokers, topics, partitions or partition leader changes. Use -1 to disable the intervalled refresh (not recommended). If there are no locally referenced topics (no topic objects created, no messages produced, no subscription or no assignment) then only the broker list will be refreshed every interval but no more often than every 10s.
Type: integer
metadata.max.age.ms*1 … 86400000900000lowMetadata cache max age. Defaults to topic.metadata.refresh.interval.ms * 3
Type: integer
topic.metadata.refresh.fast.interval.ms*1 … 60000250lowWhen a topic loses its leader a new metadata request will be enqueued with this initial interval, exponentially increasing until the topic metadata has been refreshed. This is used to recover quickly from transitioning leader brokers.
Type: integer
topic.metadata.refresh.fast.cnt*0 … 100010lowDEPRECATED No longer used.
Type: integer
topic.metadata.refresh.sparse*true, falsetruelowSparse metadata requests (consumes less network bandwidth)
Type: boolean
topic.metadata.propagation.max.ms*0 … 360000030000lowApache Kafka topic creation is asynchronous and it takes some time for a new topic to propagate throughout the cluster to all brokers. If a client requests topic metadata after manual topic creation but before the topic has been fully propagated to the broker the client is requesting metadata from, the topic will seem to be non-existent and the client will mark the topic as such, failing queued produced messages with ERR__UNKNOWN_TOPIC. This setting delays marking a topic as non-existent until the configured propagation max time has passed. The maximum propagation time is calculated from the time the topic is first referenced in the client, e.g., on produce().
Type: integer
topic.blacklist*lowTopic blacklist, a comma-separated list of regular expressions for matching topic names that should be ignored in broker metadata information as if the topics did not exist.
Type: pattern list
debug*generic, broker, topic, metadata, feature, queue, msg, protocol, cgrp, security, fetch, interceptor, plugin, consumer, admin, eos, mock, assignor, conf, allmediumA comma-separated list of debug contexts to enable. Detailed Producer debugging: broker,topic,msg. Consumer: consumer,cgrp,topic,fetch
Type: CSV flags
socket.timeout.ms*10 … 30000060000lowDefault timeout for network requests. Producer: ProduceRequests will use the lesser value of socket.timeout.ms and remaining message.timeout.ms for the first message in the batch. Consumer: FetchRequests will use fetch.wait.max.ms + socket.timeout.ms. Admin: Admin requests will use socket.timeout.ms or explicitly set rd_kafka_AdminOptions_set_operation_timeout() value.
Type: integer
socket.blocking.max.ms*1 … 600001000lowDEPRECATED No longer used.
Type: integer
socket.send.buffer.bytes*0 … 1000000000lowBroker socket send buffer size. System default is used if 0.

Type: boolean
socket.max.fails*0 … 10000001lowDisconnect from broker when this number of send failures (e.g., timed out requests) is reached. Disable with 0. WARNING: It is highly recommended to leave this setting at its default value of 1 to avoid the client and broker to become desynchronized in case of request timeouts. NOTE: The connection is automatically re-established.
Type: integer
broker.address.ttl*0 … 864000001000lowHow long to cache the broker address resolving results (milliseconds).
Type: integer
broker.address.family*any, v4, v6anylowAllowed broker IP address families: any, v4, v6
Type: enum value
connections.max.idle.ms*0 … 21474836470mediumClose broker connections after the specified time of inactivity. Disable with 0. If this property is left at its default value some heuristics are performed to determine a suitable default value, this is currently limited to identifying brokers on Azure (see librdkafka issue #3109 for more info).
Type: integer
reconnect.backoff.jitter.ms*0 … 36000000lowDEPRECATED No longer used. See reconnect.backoff.ms and reconnect.backoff.max.ms.
Type: integer
reconnect.backoff.ms*0 … 3600000100mediumThe initial time to wait before reconnecting to a broker after the connection has been closed. The time is increased exponentially until reconnect.backoff.max.ms is reached. -25% to +50% jitter is applied to each reconnect backoff. A value of 0 disables the backoff and reconnects immediately.
Type: integer
reconnect.backoff.max.ms*0 … 360000010000mediumThe maximum time to wait before reconnecting to a broker after the connection has been closed.
Type: integer
statistics.interval.ms*0 … 864000000highlibrdkafka statistics emit interval. The application also needs to register a stats callback using rd_kafka_conf_set_stats_cb(). The granularity is 1000ms. A value of 0 disables statistics.

Type: integer
log.queue*true, falsefalselowDisable spontaneous log_cb from internal librdkafka threads, instead enqueue log messages on queue set with rd_kafka_set_log_queue() and serve log callbacks or events through the standard poll APIs. NOTE: Log messages will linger in a temporary queue until the log queue has been set.
Type: boolean
log.thread.name*true, falsetruelowPrint internal thread name in log messages (useful for debugging librdkafka internals)
Type: boolean
enable.random.seed*true, falsetruelowIf enabled librdkafka will initialize the PRNG with srand(current_time.milliseconds) on the first invocation of rd_kafka_new() (required only if rand_r() is not available on your platform). If disabled the application must call srand() prior to calling rd_kafka_new().
Type: boolean

Type: see dedicated API
internal.termination.signal*0 … 1280lowSignal that librdkafka will use to quickly terminate on rd_kafka_destroy(). If this signal is not set then there will be a delay before rd_kafka_wait_destroyed() returns true as internal threads are timing out their system calls. If this signal is set however the delay will be minimal. The application should mask this signal as an internal signal handler is installed.
Type: integer
api.version.request*true, falsetruehighRequest broker’s supported API versions to adjust functionality to available protocol features. If set to false, or the ApiVersionRequest fails, the fallback version broker.version.fallback will be used. NOTE: Depends on broker version >=0.10.0. If the request is not supported by (an older) broker the broker.version.fallback fallback is used.
Type: boolean
api.version.request.timeout.ms*1 … 30000010000lowTimeout for broker API version requests.
Type: integer
api.version.fallback.ms*0 … 6048000000mediumDictates how long the broker.version.fallback fallback is used in the case the ApiVersionRequest fails. NOTE: The ApiVersionRequest is only issued when a new connection to the broker is made (such as after an upgrade).
Type: integer
broker.version.fallback*0.10.0mediumOlder broker versions (before 0.10.0) provide no way for a client to query for supported protocol features (ApiVersionRequest, see api.version.request) making it impossible for the client to know what features it may use. As a workaround a user may set this property to the expected broker version and the client will automatically adjust its feature set accordingly if the ApiVersionRequest fails (or is disabled). The fallback broker version will be used for api.version.fallback.ms. Valid values are: 0.9.0, 0.8.2, 0.8.1, 0.8.0. Any other value >= 0.10, such as 0.10.2.1, enables ApiVersionRequests.

Type: see dedicated API
group.idChighClient group id string. All clients sharing the same group.id belong to the same group.
Type: string
group.instance.idCmediumEnable static group membership. Static group members are able to leave and rejoin a group within the configured session.timeout.ms without prompting a group rebalance. This should be used in combination with a larger session.timeout.ms to avoid group rebalances caused by transient unavailability (e.g. process restarts). Requires broker version >= 2.3.0.
Type: string
partition.assignment.strategyCrange,roundrobinmediumThe name of one or more partition assignment strategies. The elected group leader will use a strategy supported by all members of the group to assign partitions to group members. If there is more than one eligible strategy, preference is determined by the order of this list (strategies earlier in the list have higher priority). Cooperative and non-cooperative (eager) strategies must not be mixed. Available strategies: range, roundrobin, cooperative-sticky.
Type: string
session.timeout.msC1 … 360000045000highClient group session and failure detection timeout. The consumer sends periodic heartbeats (heartbeat.interval.ms) to indicate its liveness to the broker. If no hearts are received by the broker for a group member within the session timeout, the broker will remove the consumer from the group and trigger a rebalance. The allowed range is configured with the broker configuration properties group.min.session.timeout.ms and group.max.session.timeout.ms. Also see max.poll.interval.ms.

Type: integer
max.poll.interval.msC1 … 86400000300000highMaximum allowed time between calls to consume messages (e.g., rd_kafka_consumer_poll()) for high-level consumers. If this interval is exceeded the consumer is considered failed and the group will rebalance in order to reassign the partitions to another consumer group member. Warning: Offset commits may be not possible at this point. Note: It is recommended to set enable.auto.offset.store=false for long-time processing applications and then explicitly store offsets (using offsets_store()) after message processing, to make sure offsets are not auto-committed prior to processing has finished. The interval is checked two times per second. See KIP-62 for more information.
Type: integer
enable.auto.commitCtrue, falsetruehighAutomatically and periodically commit offsets in the background. Note: setting this to false does not prevent the consumer from fetching previously committed start offsets. To circumvent this behaviour set specific start offsets per partition in the call to assign().
Type: boolean

Type: integer
queued.max.messages.kbytesC1 … 209715165536mediumMaximum number of kilobytes of queued pre-fetched messages in the local consumer queue. If using the high-level consumer this setting applies to the single consumer queue, regardless of the number of partitions. When using the legacy simple consumer or when separate partition queues are used this setting applies per partition. This value may be overshot by fetch.message.max.bytes. This property has higher priority than queued.min.messages.
Type: integer
fetch.wait.max.msC0 … 300000500lowMaximum time the broker may wait to fill the Fetch response with fetch.min.bytes of messages.
Type: integer
fetch.message.max.bytesC1 … 10000000001048576mediumInitial maximum number of bytes per topic+partition to request when fetching messages from the broker. If the client encounters a message larger than this value it will gradually try to increase it until the entire message can be fetched.
Type: integer
max.partition.fetch.bytesC1 … 10000000001048576mediumAlias for fetch.message.max.bytes: Initial maximum number of bytes per topic+partition to request when fetching messages from the broker. If the client encounters a message larger than this value it will gradually try to increase it until the entire message can be fetched.
Type: integer
fetch.max.bytesC0 … 214748313552428800mediumMaximum amount of data the broker shall return for a Fetch request. Messages are fetched in batches by the consumer and if the first message batch in the first non-empty partition of the Fetch request is larger than this value, then the message batch will still be returned to ensure the consumer can make progress. The maximum message batch size accepted by the broker is defined via message.max.bytes (broker config) or max.message.bytes (broker topic config). fetch.max.bytes is automatically adjusted upwards to be at least message.max.bytes (consumer config).
Type: integer
fetch.min.bytesC1 … 1000000001lowMinimum number of bytes the broker responds with. If fetch.wait.max.ms expires the accumulated data will be sent to the client regardless of this setting.

Type: boolean
allow.auto.create.topicsCtrue, falsefalselowAllow automatic topic creation on the broker when subscribing to or assigning non-existent topics. The broker must also be configured with auto.create.topics.enable=true for this configuraiton to take effect. Note: The default value (false) is different from the Java consumer (true). Requires broker version >= 0.11.0.0, for older broker versions only the broker configuration applies.
Type: boolean
client.rack*lowA rack identifier for this client. This can be any string value which indicates where this client is physically located. It corresponds with the broker config broker.rack.
Type: string
transactional.idPhighEnables the transactional producer. The transactional.id is used to identify the same transactional producer instance across process restarts. It allows the producer to guarantee that transactions corresponding to earlier instances of the same producer have been finalized prior to starting any new transactions, and that any zombie instances are fenced off. If no transactional.id is provided, then the producer is limited to idempotent delivery (if enable.idempotence is set). Requires broker version >= 0.11.0.
Type: string
transaction.timeout.msP1000 … 214748364760000mediumThe maximum amount of time in milliseconds that the transaction coordinator will wait for a transaction status update from the producer before proactively aborting the ongoing transaction. If this value is larger than the transaction.max.timeout.ms setting in the broker, the init_transactions() call will fail with ERR_INVALID_TRANSACTION_TIMEOUT. The transaction timeout automatically adjusts message.timeout.ms and socket.timeout.ms, unless explicitly configured in which case they must not exceed the transaction timeout (socket.timeout.ms must be at least 100ms lower than transaction.timeout.ms). This is also the default timeout value if no timeout (-1) is supplied to the transactional API methods.
Type: integer
enable.idempotencePtrue, falsefalsehighWhen set to true, the producer will ensure that messages are successfully produced exactly once and in the original produce order. The following configuration properties are adjusted automatically (if not modified by the user) when idempotence is enabled: max.in.flight.requests.per.connection=5 (must be less than or equal to 5), retries=INT32_MAX (must be greater than 0), acks=all, queuing.strategy=fifo. Producer instantation will fail if user-supplied configuration is incompatible.
Type: boolean
enable.gapless.guaranteePtrue, falsefalselowEXPERIMENTAL: subject to change or removal. When set to true, any error that could result in a gap in the produced message series when a batch of messages fails, will raise a fatal error (ERR__GAPLESS_GUARANTEE) and stop the producer. Messages failing due to message.timeout.ms are not covered by this guarantee. Requires enable.idempotence=true.
Type: boolean
queue.buffering.max.messagesP1 … 10000000100000highMaximum number of messages allowed on the producer queue. This queue is shared by all topics and partitions.
Type: integer
queue.buffering.max.kbytesP1 … 21474836471048576highMaximum total message size sum allowed on the producer queue. This queue is shared by all topics and partitions. This property has higher priority than queue.buffering.max.messages.
Type: integer
queue.buffering.max.msP0 … 9000005highDelay in milliseconds to wait for messages in the producer queue to accumulate before constructing message batches (MessageSets) to transmit to brokers. A higher value allows larger and more effective (less overhead, improved compression) batches of messages to accumulate at the expense of increased message delivery latency.
Type: float
linger.msP0 … 9000005highAlias for queue.buffering.max.ms: Delay in milliseconds to wait for messages in the producer queue to accumulate before constructing message batches (MessageSets) to transmit to brokers. A higher value allows larger and more effective (less overhead, improved compression) batches of messages to accumulate at the expense of increased message delivery latency.
Type: float
message.send.max.retriesP0 … 21474836472147483647highHow many times to retry sending a failing Message. Note: retrying may cause reordering unless enable.idempotence is set to true.
Type: integer
retriesP0 … 21474836472147483647highAlias for message.send.max.retries: How many times to retry sending a failing Message. Note: retrying may cause reordering unless enable.idempotence is set to true.
Type: integer
retry.backoff.msP1 … 300000100mediumThe backoff time in milliseconds before retrying a protocol request.
Type: integer
queue.buffering.backpressure.thresholdP1 … 10000001lowThe threshold of outstanding not yet transmitted broker requests needed to backpressure the producer’s message accumulator. If the number of not yet transmitted requests equals or exceeds this number, produce request creation that would have otherwise been triggered (for example, in accordance with linger.ms) will be delayed. A lower number yields larger and more effective batches. A higher value can improve latency when using compression on slow machines.
Type: integer
compression.codecPnone, gzip, snappy, lz4, zstdnonemediumcompression codec to use for compressing message sets. This is the default value for all topics, may be overridden by the topic configuration property compression.codec.
Type: enum value
compression.typePnone, gzip, snappy, lz4, zstdnonemediumAlias for compression.codec: compression codec to use for compressing message sets. This is the default value for all topics, may be overridden by the topic configuration property compression.codec.
Type: enum value
batch.num.messagesP1 … 100000010000mediumMaximum number of messages batched in one MessageSet. The total MessageSet size is also limited by batch.size and message.max.bytes.
Type: integer
batch.sizeP1 … 21474836471000000mediumMaximum size (in bytes) of all messages batched in one MessageSet, including protocol framing overhead. This limit is applied after the first message has been added to the batch, regardless of the first message’s size, this is to ensure that messages that exceed batch.size are produced. The total MessageSet size is also limited by batch.num.messages and message.max.bytes.
Type: integer
delivery.report.only.errorPtrue, falsefalselowOnly provide delivery reports for failed messages.
Type: boolean
dr_cbPlowDelivery report callback (set with rd_kafka_conf_set_dr_cb())
Type: see dedicated API
dr_msg_cbPlowDelivery report callback (set with rd_kafka_conf_set_dr_msg_cb())
Type: see dedicated API
sticky.partitioning.linger.msP0 … 90000010lowDelay in milliseconds to wait to assign new sticky partitions for each topic. By default, set to double the time of linger.ms. To disable sticky behavior, set to 0. This behavior affects messages with the key NULL in all cases, and messages with key lengths of zero when the consistent_random partitioner is in use. These messages would otherwise be assigned randomly. A higher value allows for more effective batching of these messages.

request.required.acksP-1 … 1000-1highThis field indicates the number of acknowledgements the leader broker must receive from ISR brokers before responding to the request: 0=Broker does not send any response/ack to client, -1 or all=Broker will block until message is committed by all in sync replicas (ISRs). If there are less than min.insync.replicas (broker configuration) in the ISR set the produce request will fail.
Type: integer
acksP-1 … 1000-1highAlias for request.required.acks: This field indicates the number of acknowledgements the leader broker must receive from ISR brokers before responding to the request: 0=Broker does not send any response/ack to client, -1 or all=Broker will block until message is committed by all in sync replicas (ISRs). If there are less than min.insync.replicas (broker configuration) in the ISR set the produce request will fail.
