Version 12.x and Later

In Kafka Connect, each connector maintains a record of the topics it actively uses.
The Reset Topics option clears this record, allowing the connector to rebuild the list of actively used topics during its next execution cycle.
This is useful when you modify connector configurations (for example, changing topic patterns or subscriptions) and want the system to refresh the tracked topic list.

To reset topics for a connector:

Select the connector for which you want to reset topics.
From the Selected menu, navigate to:
Commands > Reset Topics.
The Confirm Reset Topics action dialog opens.
Click Yes to reset topics immediately, or Schedule to perform the action later.
(See Scheduling Jobs for more information.)

Once the reset is completed, the connector clears its record of currently tracked topics.
During the next run, it automatically detects and updates the list of active topics based on the connector’s configuration and activity.
