Hi Christian,

Thanks.I just wanted to delete few messages so that if any consumer start from beginning,they shouldn’t see those messages.

Thanks,
Mudit

Might be worth describing your use case a bit to see if there's another way
to help you?

Well, if you have a log compacted topic, you can issue a tombstone message
(key with a null message) to delete it. Outside of that, what Tom said
applies.

Hi Mudit,

Sorry this is not possible. The only deletion Kafka offers is retention or
whole topic deletion.

Thanks
