Why is element in the queue deleted even if the function throws an exception?

My question is how can i achieve this?

my code and host.json looks like this ?

[Function(“QueueCancellations”)]
public async Task<IActionResult> QueueCancellation([QueueTrigger(“requests”, Connection = “ConnectionStrings:QUEUE_CONNECTION_STRING”)] string message)
{
try
{

using (var httpClient = new HttpClient())
{

var content = new StringContent(message, Encoding.UTF8, “application/json”);

var httpResponse = await httpClient.PostAsync(_configuration[“LOCAL_SERVICE_URL_CANCELL”], content);

if (httpResponse.IsSuccessStatusCode)
{
return new OkObjectResult(“Data sent to backend”);

}

else
{
return new BadRequestObjectResult(“Backend not available”);

}

catch (Exception ex) {
_logger.LogError(ex.Message);

return new BadRequestObjectResult(“Backend not available”);

}

I write an Azure Function with a queue trigger and i want to send the data to the backend service if the backend service is avaiable and if not available then the element should still be in the queue.
