Does Spring Cloud Stream Kafka supports embedded headers?

Question

According to this topic:
Kafka Spring Integration: Headers not coming for kafka consumer - this is no headers support for Kafka

But documentation says:

spring.cloud.stream.kafka.binder.headers
The list of custom headers that will be transported by the binder.

Default: empty.

I can't get it working with spring-cloud-stream-binder-kafka: 1.2.0.RELEASE

I expect to see the same message id and get correlationId on receiving side.

application.properties:

spring.cloud.stream.kafka.binder.headers=correlationId
spring.cloud.stream.bindings.newTest.destination=new_test
spring.cloud.stream.bindings.newTestCreated.destination=new_test
spring.cloud.stream.default.consumer.headerMode=embeddedHeaders
spring.cloud.stream.default.producer.headerMode=embeddedHeaders

Answer 1

Yes, it does: http://docs.spring.io/spring-cloud-stream/docs/Chelsea.SR2/reference/htmlsingle/index.html#_consumer_properties

headerMode

When set to raw, disables header parsing on input. Effective only for messaging middleware that does not support message headers natively and requires header embedding. Useful when inbound data is coming from outside Spring Cloud Stream applications.

Default: embeddedHeaders

But that is already Spring Cloud Stream story, not Spring Kafka per se.
