reset() - Encore

Clears all locally stored SDK state and generates a new anonymous user id.

The language set with setLanguage() survives reset(). It is a preference of the browser, like appearance, not user state, so a logout leaves it in place. Only clearLanguage() removes it.

Signature

function reset(): void

What gets cleared

User identity: a fresh anonymous UUID is generated and persisted
All user attributes
A claim saved for redeem()
Queued signals and cached SDK data

reset() revokes nothing. Claims already made, and the real (server-side) entitlements they can lead to, belong to the user id they were made under and are unaffected.

When to call

Logout, so the next visitor on this browser doesn’t inherit the previous user’s state.
Account switch: reset() first, then identify() the new user.

Example

import Encore from '@encorekit/web-sdk';

async function handleLogout() {
  await clearAppSession(); // your own session teardown
  Encore.reset();
  window.location.href = '/login';
}

async function switchAccount(newUser) {
  Encore.reset();
  Encore.identify(newUser.id, { email: newUser.email });
}

identify(): attach the next user’s id
