Reset API feeds

Tags:apifeedsreset api keyreset feed

The feed for each API scope can be reset to a specific date and time.
This is useful when your server was temporarily unable to process incoming entries, or if you need to re-synchronize Twikey’s system with your own.

Important: Resetting feeds improperly can cause data duplication or synchronization issues.

How to reset a specific feed

  1. Navigate to Settings in your Twikey menu
  2. Navigate to API
  3. Click Reset feed on the right of the screen to display the reset options
  4. Select the API user whose feed should be reset.
    Changes only apply to this user, other API users are not affected
  5. Select the scope of the feed you want to reset (e.g., Contracts, Transactions,...)
  6. Enter the date and time (UTC) to which you want to reset the feed
  7. Click Reset feed

Best practices

  • Only reset feeds when absolutely necessary, such as after a server outage or missed webhook processing.
  • Be aware that all entries from the reset point onward will be replayed, which can cause duplicate processing if your system does not handle idempotency.
  • After resetting, monitor your system for any unexpected behavior and verify that all entries have been processed correctly.
  • Consider resetting feeds in small time windows for large volumes to avoid overwhelming your server with replayed events.
