How do I run, pause, edit or cancel a task?

Open a task from the Tasks page to run it now, pause or resume it, edit its details and schedule, or cancel it.

These steps are for the web app. You can also ask Bluedeer in a chat to pause, change or cancel a task.

Open a task

Click Tasks in the sidebar, then click the task. The task page has two tabs: Overview and Results & history.

Actions

The buttons you see depend on the task's status:

  • Run now starts a run straight away.
  • Pause stops the task running on its schedule. Resume starts it again on the saved schedule.
  • Edit opens the Edit task window.
  • Cancel task stops the task for good.

Edit a task

In Edit task you can change:

  • Name and Instructions
  • Time zone
  • the schedule: Once with a Run at time, Cron with a Cron expression, or Interval with Every (seconds) and Starting from
  • Completion notifications: Always, On change or Never
  • Notify on failure, a switch that turns failure notices on or off
  • Tool calls per run (optional). Leave it blank to use your plan's limit.

Cancel a task

Click Cancel task. The Cancel dialog explains that the task stops running and cannot be resumed. Click Cancel task to confirm, or Keep task to go back. The task's results and history stay available after it is cancelled.
