[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-14368) Add an offset write REST API to Kafka Connect

Yash Mayya created KAFKA-14368:
----------------------------------

             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.
