I don't think there is any direct high level API equivalent to this.every
time you read messages using high level api your offset gets synced in zoo
keeper .auto offset is for cases where last read offset for example have
been purged n rather than getting exception you want to just fall back to
either most current or oldest message offset.
But other's more experienced opinion on this will be great.
