Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**

As a component developer, specifically for polling APIs, it's not possible to deploy a custom source component to a specific workflow.

https://pipedream.com/community/t/source-reset-emitted-events-or-manually-trigger-a-workflow-that-is-triggered-by-a-source/1964

If your source is polling an API, it will being to emit events before you can create a workflow. This means that your workflow will miss events.

**Describe the solution you'd like**

We'd like a workaround to either re-send emitted events in the Source dashboard, or some mechanism to allow a workflow to manually run missed events that occurred before the workflow was added to the source.

**Do you have a workaround?**

At this time you have to develop a polling component to programmatically go backwards in history so you can have a workflow for past events, and another workflow for future events.
