Retry & Cancel Runs
From the History page, you can take actions on Work Orders and Runs depending
on their current state. Use Retry to re-execute completed work orders, or
Cancel to remove pending runs from the queue.
Available Actions by Work Order State
| Work Order State | Available Actions |
|---|---|
| Pending (runs waiting in the queue) | Cancel |
| Running | None |
| Final states (Success, Failed, Crashed, Killed, Exception, Lost, Cancelled, Rejected) | Retry, Retry from |
When you select multiple work orders with different state categories (e.g., some pending and some failed), both Retry and Cancel buttons will be disabled. Select only work orders in the same state category to use bulk actions.
Retry a Work Order
Did a step in your workflow fail? Looking to resync historical data? Whatever the reason, watch the below video tutorial (or see link) to learn how to rerun your Workflow.
Retry via History page
To rerun your Workflow from the History page:
- Locate your failed
Work Order(use the search bar or filters, if needed) - Collapse the Work Order to view related
Runs - Click
rerunnext to the Step that you want to rerun the workflow from. Choose the first step to start from the beginning, or a later step to rerun the workflow from that step onwards. - This will create a new
Runrelated to the same Work Order. Check theStatusto see if this Run successfully completed the Work Order.
Retry via Inspector view
To rerun your Workflow from the Inspector page:
- Locate your failed
Work Order(use the search bar or filters, if needed) - Collapse the Work Order to view related
Runs - Click
inspectnext to the Step that you want open up in theInspectorview for further troubleshooting. - This will open up the
Inspectorview so that you can see theInputandOutputof the failed Step. You can make edits to the custom logic, as needed, in theEditorpanel. - When ready to retry the workflow against the same Input, click
Rerun from here. This will create a newRunfor the same Work Order. Go toHistorypage to check theStatusto see if this Run successfully completed the Work Order. - If you prefer to create a new Work Order (instead of retrying the same Work
Order), you can click the dropdown next to "Rerun from here" and instead
choose
Create New Work Order.
Cancel Pending Runs
If runs are stuck in the queue or were created by mistake, you can cancel them.
Cancelling moves runs from available to cancelled and updates the
corresponding work order status from pending to cancelled. See
Status Codes for more on what each status means.
There are several ways to cancel:
- Cancel all runs for a work order: Click the action button on a pending work order row in the History page to cancel all of its pending runs.
- Cancel a single run: Click the cancel button next to an individual run item, either in the run list or on the run detail page.
If a pending run begins executing between the time you open the cancel confirmation dialog and the time you confirm, that run will not be cancelled. Only runs still in the queue at the moment of confirmation are affected.
Bulk Actions
You can act on multiple work orders at once by selecting them via checkboxes on the History page:
- Bulk Cancel: Select work orders in the
Pendingstate, then click theCancelbutton to cancel all pending runs across the selected work orders. - Bulk Retry: Select work orders in a final state (e.g., Failed, Crashed),
then click the
Retrybutton.
Bulk action buttons are only enabled when all selected work orders share the same state category. Selecting work orders with mixed states (e.g., some pending and some failed) or selecting only running work orders will disable all action buttons.
