You can [reset the bump date](https://meta.discourse.org/t/what-is-reset-bump-date/111071) manually. To see how to do it from the API, you can [reverse engineer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-reverse-engineer-the-discourse-api/20576) it. Looks like this should work:

`PUT /t/{topic-id}/reset-bump-date`
