    Description

      below is the example code, where we are trying to get the publish_time of the pubsub message in our DoFn(). It seems the type has changed in the version of apache beam starting 2.36.0. However, I was not able to find any release notes that talk about this change. Any reference will be helpful.

      class ProtoToDictDoFn(beam.DoFn):
      def process(self, element, publish_time=beam.DoFn.TimestampParam):
          """
          element is type PubsubMessage(), 
          """
          print('-------------')
          print(type(element.publish_time))
          print(element.publish_time)
          print('-------------')
      
      
      Output:
      — for version 2.35.0 —
      <class 'google.protobuf.timestamp_pb2.Timestamp'>
      seconds: 1652814206
      nanos: 417000000
      
      — for version >= 2.36.0 —
      <class 'proto.datetime_helpers.DatetimeWithNanoseconds'>
      2022-05-17 19:02:06.314000+00:00 

      Which seems to be an issue. As per the google pubsub documentation publish time should be type "google.protobuf.timestamp_pb2.Timestamp"

      Any clue, what has changed or caused this issue?
