The old reset API that I used is not working anymore. It is the one hosted at ~/api/source/reset/{id}.

Hello @rkundioptiv  
Welcome to the community  
I’m successfully using the endpoint `{{api-url}}/cc/api/source/reset/{id}`

Thanks. I figured it out, I think, :). The source owner was not me, so when I used my PAT or my session it was just not letting me reset the source.

@yannick_beot

is this API version got deprecated? I’m not able to reset source, It gives me 403 forbidden error.

Hi @chandramohan2706  
Did you generate your PAT recently?  
You need to assign a scope that has enough right to do so.

@yannick_beot

Could you please share steps to assign a scope with the rights to reset the source.
