Docs Self-Managed Reference rpk Commands rpk group rpk group offset-delete This is documentation for Self-Managed v23.2, which is no longer supported. To view the latest available version of the docs, see v24.2. rpk group offset-delete Forcefully delete offsets for a Kafka group. The broker will only allow the request to succeed if the group is in a dead state (no subscriptions) or there are no subscriptions for offsets for topic/partitions requested to be deleted. Use either the --from-file or the --topic option. They are mutually exclusive. To indicate which topics or topic partitions you’d like to remove offsets from use the --topic (-t) flag, followed by a comma separated list of partition IDs. Supplying no list will delete all offsets for all partitions for a given topic. You may also provide a text file to indicate topic/partition tuples. Use the --from-file flag for this option. The file must contain lines of topic/partitions separated by a tab or space. Example: topic_a 0 topic_a 1 topic_b 0 Usage rpk group offset-delete [GROUP] --from-file FILE --topic foo:0,1,2 [flags] Flags Value Type Description -f, --from-file string File of topic/partition tuples for which to delete offsets for. -h, --help - Help for offset-delete. -t, --topic stringArray topic:partition_id (repeatable; e.g. -t foo:0,1,2 ). --config string Redpanda or rpk config file; default search paths are ~/.config/rpk/rpk.yaml, $PWD, and /etc/redpanda/redpanda.yaml. -X, --config-opt stringArray Override rpk configuration settings; '-X help' for detail or '-X list' for terser detail. --profile string rpk profile to use. -v, --verbose - Enable verbose logging.
