Delete single event

EventStoreDB
1

Let’s say following events in “test-stream”:

0@test-stream

1@test-stream

2@test-stream

3@test-stream

…

Is there a way (cheat) to DELETE only 2@test-stream**? **

I guess easiest is to copy all events except 2@test-stream into test-stream_v2 and then delete original stream?

*I am aware of truncateBefore, maxAge, maxCount, hard/soft stream delete, but none of those allows to delete specific event in stream.

You can’t delete single events out of a stream. Your suggestion of copying over the events you want into a new stream is probably the best way to go.
