Pausing plan executions

Pause your plan executions, for example when fixing an issue for a failed plan or during a maintenance period, to make sure no executions will happen during these events.

Note that a paused task or plan on Cloud Engines neither starts Cloud Engine nor consumes tokens.

Before you begin

  • You must have the appropriate permissions for the environment and workspace where the plan is located.
  • You must have Execute permission to pause plan executions.

About this task

You can pause plan executions from its details page or from the Plans tab. Once paused, no executions will be possible for this plan anymore, including scheduled, manual, API, or webhook.

Any ongoing executions continue until completed.

Procedure

  1. Open the Management page.
  2. Go to the Plans tab.
  3. Select the plan to open its details page or click the icon next to its name.
    You can use the faceted search at the top of the page to filter the list, for example by selecting the environment and the workspace.
  4. From the details page, click the Pause button on the top right corner.
    From the Plans tab, click Pause.
  5. Optional: Type in the reason to pause your plan.
  6. Click Pause.
    From the details page, you can see a message at the top of the details page explaining the plan has been paused. You can also see who paused the plan, on which date and why this operation was performed.

    From the Plans tab, your plan is now marked as Paused in the State column.

    You can find paused plans by using the new State filter option from the Plans tab.
