Abort workflow

Description

The Abort workflow action immediately stops (aborts) a running workflow.

Use the abort action if you want to explicitly terminate a workflow and mark it as failed with an (optional) error message.

The workflow is always marked as failed, whatever the action before the abort returned. A parent workflow calling this workflow will follow its failure hop.

Options

Option Description

Action name

The name of the workflow action. This name has to be unique in a single workflow. A workflow action can be placed several times on the canvas, however it will be the same workflow action.

Message

Message to add in log when aborting

Log level of the message

The log level to write the message with, Error by default. Lower the log level if you don’t want the message to show up as an error in the log. This only changes the logging: the workflow is marked as failed either way.
