You can cancel a running workflow both programatically and from your Upstash Workflow console.

​
Cancelling via console

In your Upstash Workflow console, find the run you’d like to cancel and press the Cancel Workflow button on the right side:

​
Cancelling in bulk

To cancel many runs at once, filter the Logs tab down to the runs you want and pick Cancel from the Bulk actions menu. QStash cancels every running workflow that matches the filters in the background. The History button next to the menu lists each bulk cancellation with its state, the filters used and the number of runs cancelled, so you can follow an operation while it runs or look it up later by its action ID. The same is available through the bulk cancel workflow runs endpoint with "async": true, and the bulk actions endpoints.

Cancelling programatically

This feature is not yet available in workflow-py. See our Roadmap for feature parity plans and Changelog for updates.
And replace <WORKFLOW_RUN_ID> with your actual run ID. See the documentation of client.cancel method for more information about other ways of canceling workflows. You can also use the Upstash Workflow REST API to cancel a run programatically.
