Cancel a Workflow Run

You can cancel the run of a workflow by using the vRealize Orchestrator REST API.

Procedure

  1. Retrieve the definition of the workflow by making a GET request at the URL of the workflow's definition: 
    GET https://{orchestrator_fqdn}/vco/api/workflows/{workflowID}/
    The workflow definition contains a link to the available runnable objects of the workflow.
  2. Get the available workflow runs by making a GET request to the URL that holds the available runnable objects for the workflow: 
    GET https://{orchestrator_fqdn}/vco/api/workflows/{workflowID}/executions/
  3. From the list of the available workflow runs, select the run that you want to cancel and make a DELETE request at its URL: 
    DELETE https://{orchestrator_fqdn}/vco/api/workflows/{workflowID}/executions/{runID}/state
