Hi Avi, As described in the documentation: "If offsets could not be found for a partition, the auto.offset.reset setting in the properties will be used.". For starting from GroupOffset, the property "auto.offset.reset" will ONLY be respected when the group offset cannot be found for a partition. Otherwise, it will use the offset found.
