Hey folks, for some reason, my 2nd consumer group doesn’t seem to be consuming from the queue. My first consumer group is called `documentUploadProcessor_development` which is what I use for dev.

Could it be that the beginning commit offset is expired from the topic 7-day retention?

logs from render:
