Hello Am I doing something wrong or is it by design that global state stores and their consumers do not show up under the consumer-groups? With the consumer group command (and in control center as well) I don't get any output for the group: ./kafka-consumer-groups --bootstrap-server broker:9092 --group somegroup --describe Note: This will not show information about old Zookeeper-based consumers.
If I query for the state I get a response that members are present: ./kafka-consumer-groups --bootstrap-server broker:9092 --group somegroup --describe --state Note: This will not show information about old Zookeeper-based consumers. COORDINATOR (ID) ASSIGNMENT-STRATEGY STATE #MEMBERS broker:9092 (1) stream Stable 2 This is quite irritating as we cannot see if a global state store has caught up with a backlog of messages. Code to reproduce: builder.globalTable(TOPIC_NAME, Materialized .<String, String, KeyValueStore<Bytes, byte[]>>as(STORENAME) .withKeySerde(Serdes.String()) .withValueSerde(Serdes.String())); Nothing fancy.

Any input is appreciated best regards Patrik PS: The customer will forward this to the Confluent support too, but I'm asking here for public visibility
