Can I specify ttl for Pub/Sub messages?

I found in the Google Pub/Sub documentation that a published message can wait for up to 7 days for the delivery to the subscriber and then it gets deleted. But is there a way to make this time shorter, like 10 seconds? Perhaps some message attribute or subscription configuration?

The feature to allow one to change the retention time to make it shorter than 7 days is currently an alpha feature and cannot be set via the UI, but it can be set via the gcloud command-line tool. The shortest retention duration allowed is 10 minutes. To set this property, run the following:

gcloud alpha pubsub subscriptions update \
projects/<project>/subscriptions/<subscription> \
--message-retention-duration=10m
