maxDequeueCount config setting not working for Azure Function

I have an an Azure Function which I want to fail and sent to the poison queue if it errors once or twice. I've set the maxDequeueCount property in my host.json file to 1, but it still retries 5 times. Based on all the doco I've read this seems to be correct. Does anyone have any suggestions? Below is a sample of my hosts.json.

{
  "version": "2.0",
  "logging": {
    "fileLoggingMode": "debugOnly",
    "logLevel": {
      // For all functions
      "Function": "Trace",
      // Default settings, e.g. for host
      "default": "Trace"
    },
    "extensions": {
      "queues": {
        "visibilityTimeout": "00:01:00",
        "maxDequeueCount": 1
      }
    }
  }
}

Old question, but your problem was that your "extensions" property was inside your "logging" object rather than at the top level.

For storage queue trigger, to change frequency of the retry, we just need to change the value of maxDequeueCount. Please go to azure portal to check the host.json file.

{
  "version": "2.0",
  "extensionBundle": {
    "id": "Microsoft.Azure.Functions.ExtensionBundle",
    "version": "[1.*, 2.0.0)"
  },
  "extensions": {
    "queues": {
      "maxDequeueCount": 1
    }
  }
}

If the feature still doesn't work after restarting the function, I afraid that you need to raise a support ticket on azure portal, they will check the backend logs for you.
