Cancel Workflow

Stop a running workflow

Stop a workflow that you no longer need. Cancel Workflow halts a running task so you can free up resources or relaunch with different parameters.

Why use this

  • Save credits -- stop a workflow early if you realize you launched it with the wrong settings or don't need the results
  • Unblock your project -- cancel a stuck or long-running workflow so you can launch a fresh one
  • Clean up duplicates -- if you accidentally launched the same workflow twice, cancel the extra one

Only works on running workflows

You can only cancel workflows with "running" status. Pending workflows that haven't started yet and completed workflows cannot be cancelled. Use the running workflows list to find the right run ID.

Step by step

Find the workflow to cancel

Check the running workflows list to see what's active and get the run ID.

Cancel it

Tell Luce which workflow to stop. You can reference it by run ID or describe which one you mean.

"Cancel workflow run 42"

Launch a replacement if needed

If you cancelled because the settings were wrong, relaunch with the correct parameters.
