ProcessorReceiveActions.ReceiveMessagesAsync Method

Definition

Receives a list of ServiceBusReceivedMessage from the entity using ServiceBusReceiveMode mode configured in ReceiveMode, which defaults to PeekLock mode. This method doesn't guarantee to return exact maxMessages messages, even if there are maxMessages messages available in the queue or topic. Messages received using this method are subject to the behavior defined in the AutoCompleteMessages and MaxAutoLockRenewalDuration properties.
