Cancel a Run.
Cancel a Run and every workflow of it still queued or running. RUN is a Run’s resource name, its id, or a prefix of its id unique among the instance’s recent Runs.
A Run GitHub started (for a pull request, or as a postsubmit) is GitHub’s: cancelling it reports its checks on GitHub as cancelled, and only a new push, GitHub’s Re-run or chainctl checks rerun starts them again. It is refused unless –force is given.
Cancelling a Run whose cancellation was already requested is harmless; a Run that has finished cannot be cancelled. With –output json the Run is printed as the API returns it.
chainctl checks cancel RUN [--force] [--sandbox-url URL] [--parent ORGANIZATION_NAME | ORGANIZATION_ID] [--output=json] # Cancel a Run you started, by id prefix
chainctl checks cancel 3f9a1c2e
# Cancel a Run GitHub started for a pull request
chainctl checks cancel 3f9a1c2e --force --force Cancel the Run even when GitHub started it.
