----------------------------------
Summary: Topic existence check is wrongly implemented in the
DeleteOffset API
Key: KAFKA-8954
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8954
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: David Jacot
The current DeleteOffset API check relies on the consumer group's committed
offsets to decide if a topic exists or not. While this works in most of the
cases, it does not work when a topic exists but it does not have any committed
offsets yet. Moreover, it is not consistent with other APIs which rely on the
metadata cache so it must be updated.
