Kafka how to set producer retries to Infinity

Question

How can I set the spring-boot property : spring.kafka.producer.retries to Integer.MAX_VALUE ?

Is it working to unset this property or this will default to 0 ?

According to the Kafka docs it defaults to Integer.MAX_VALUE (at least with the current version), which concurs with the KIP.
