See original GitHub issue

Environment details

OS: Google Cloud Functions
Node.js version: 8
npm version:
@google-cloud/pubsub version: 0.32.0

Steps to reproduce

const pubsub = new PubSub();
const data = JSON.stringify({ id: `foo`, operation: { name: `bar` } });
const dataBuffer = Buffer.from(data);
pubsub.topic(`projects/project-id/topics/xxx`).publish(dataBuffer).then(messageId => {
  console.log(`Message ${messageId} published.`);
  callback();
}).catch(err => {
  console.error('ERROR:', err);
  callback();
});

and error:

 receiveTimestamp:  "2019-09-12T14:35:01.511527849Z"

With 0.31.1 all works good.

Can you folks try installing @google-cloud/pubsub v0.32.1, double check that it pulled google-gax v1.5.2+, and let us know here if the problem is still there?

Thanks, v0.32.1 works good for me 👍 🙇
