Reset Adapter

You can reset an adapter in Flowcore using the Flowcore CLI to run from a set moment in time.

Reset Adapter

To reset an adapter, you can use the flowcore reset adapter command. This command will reset the specified adapter, to a specified moment in time. You can think of it as a rewind button for your adapter, allowing you to rewind to a specific point in time, and replay all the events that have occurred since then.

Caution

If your adapter is processing the events into an already existing data storage, you need to make sure that your transformation logic is able to handle re-entries.

For example, you can check if the payload within the event already exists in your data storage, and if it does, you can skip the event, or handle it as a re-entry.

This is generally a good design for when have your transformation logic, to always support replays.
