How set expiry for memcached couchbase bucket documents in java

I set like the following but it doesn’t change anything, always says expiry=0

bucket.getAndTouch(“id_3”, 5601000);

If I set the expiry for an existing document using touch OR getAndTouch method, it doesn’t show the updated expiry when I get after upsert, it always shows “0”. What is the issue here??

Kindly take look into it.

Thank you!

The expiry field is not populated when the document is read; it’s only used when the document is inserted/upserted. You’re not the first to be surprised by this; see: Expiry always is 0

If you experiment by setting a short expiry, I’d wager you’ll see the documents disappearing from your bucket (unless you call touch/getAndTouch).

Note that upserting clears the expiry, unless you set an expiry when upserting.
