Canceling a lot of scheduled workflows

[jona]

Hi Forum,

I am struggling in canceling a lot of scheduled workflows. I see a option to cancel them al, but then also other workflows who need to be continued also get lost.

The workflow ‘movematch_leads’ need to be deleted. There are 2.000 scheduled workflows.

Can someone help me out? Thank you.

Forum contributors more experienced than I likely can suggest better techniques. Meanwhile, in case it’s helpful, here’s what I’d try.

• Create a workflow to cancel a list of scheduled API workflows.
• To get the list of scheduled workflow IDs required as an input to the workflow, copy from the scheduler log in your screenshot. Potentially a browser extension like Table Capture can help.

Hi David,

Thank you for your reaction. I maybe find a way to have the workflows.

Do you know when I cancel all everything get canceled or only the ones that I have filtered out with the time selecter?

It is saying that everything is getting deleted, but I dont know if it means all the workflows or all the workflows within the time selection filter.

@jona It will cancel all the workflows. Filter is not applied.

When scheduling an API workflow, it is always worth saving the scheduled workflow’s ID (and possibly its date) so that it is easy to cancel them in future.

There’s not much you can do short of writing a macro that will go through all of the scheduled workflows and cancel the ones with a particular name.
