             Summary: Unable to subscribe to several PubSub subscriptions with a valueprovider
                 Key: BEAM-11635
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-11635
             Project: Beam
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: io-java-gcp, runner-dataflow
    Affects Versions: 2.27.0
         Environment: GCP
            Reporter: Limbourg


Deploying as a template a streaming job in Google Dataflow, I can't create more than one PubSub subscriptions, which subscription name is determined at runtime:
{code:java}
      final List<PCollection<String>> pCollections = new ArrayList<>();
        for (final String topic : topics) {
            final ValueProvider<String> vpSub = ValueProvider.NestedValueProvider.of(options.getSubscriptionPrefix(),
                    prefix -> prefix + topic);
            PCollection<String> messages =
                    pipeline.apply("Sub-read-" + topic, PubsubIO.readStrings().fromSubscription(vpSub))
                            .apply("Windowing", Window.into(duration));
            pCollections.add(messages);
        }
{code}
During the launching of the job, I got the error in the logs:
{code:java}
Workflow failed. Causes: The pubsub configuration contains errors: Subscription 'projects/_project_/subscriptions/_prefix_' is consumed by multiple stages, this will result in undefined behavior.
{code}
It seems that the coded SerializableFunction that I provide to the instances of NestedValueProvider are not called.

It could be due to [https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/runners/google-cloud-dataflow-java/src/main/java/org/apache/beam/runners/dataflow/DataflowRunner.java]  StreamingPubsubIOReadTranslator#translate, especially these lines :
{code:java}
      if (overriddenTransform.getSubscriptionProvider() != null) {
        if (overriddenTransform.getSubscriptionProvider().isAccessible()) {
          stepContext.addInput(
              PropertyNames.PUBSUB_SUBSCRIPTION,
              overriddenTransform.getSubscription().getV1Beta1Path());
        } else {
          stepContext.addInput(
              PropertyNames.PUBSUB_SUBSCRIPTION_OVERRIDE,
              ((NestedValueProvider) overriddenTransform.getSubscriptionProvider()).propertyName());
        }
      }
{code}
Indeed this code :
 * Forces to use a NestedValueProvider if value is not accessible before runtime, due to the vehement cast,
 * Results in having the same incorrect subscription value at runtime (so only the prefix in my case) for all the reads of the loop, at least at validation time

 

Seems to be the same issue reported there : [https://issuetracker.google.com/u/0/issues/157584222]
