----------------------------------
Summary: Add an offset write REST API to Kafka Connect
Key: KAFKA-14368
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-14368
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Yash Mayya
Assignee: Yash Mayya
[KIP-875|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-875%3A+First-class+offsets+support+in+Kafka+Connect]
for https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4107 proposes to add an offset
reset API which will allow resetting the offsets for source and sink connectors
so that they can consume from the beginning of the stream. However, an offset
API to write arbitrary offsets would also be useful for certain connectors in
order to go back in time but not to the beginning, or to skip some problematic
record and move forward. Based on the discussion thread for KIP-875
[here|https://lists.apache.org/thread/m5bklnh5w4mwr9nbzrmfk0pftpxfjd02], it was
determined that this could be done through a follow-up KIP if/when KIP-875 is
adopted.
