How can I “reset connection state”
k
To reset the connection state in Airbyte, you can follow these steps: 1. In the Airbyte UI, click on Connections and then click on the connection you want to modify. 2. Click on the Settings tab on the Connection page. 3. Click on the Advanced dropdown arrow. The Connection State displays. To edit the connection state: 1. Click anywhere in the Connection state to start editing. 2. Confirm changes by clicking "Update state". Discard any changes by clicking "Revert changes". 3. Confirm the changes to the connection state update. Please note that updates to the connection state should be handled with extreme care. Updates may break your syncs, requiring a full historical sync of your data to fix. Make changes only as directed by the Airbyte team. In some cases, you might need to use the API to update the state of the connector. You can find more information about this in the [API documentation](https://airbyte-public-api-docs.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/rapidoc-api-docs.html#post-/v1/state/create_or_update). Also, note that in the newer versions of Airbyte, the
Reset
functionality has been replaced with
Clear
to reduce confusion.
Clear
performs the same removal of the state, but does not trigger a sync afterwards. You can read more about this in the [Clear documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/operator-guides/clear).
