How can I stop a running automation?

You can stop an automation at any time if you no longer want it to continue executing. Stopping an automation immediately ends the current run and prevents any further steps from being executed.

Ways to stop an automation

FYERS Web

1) From the Automate Dashboard (My automations)

• Go to Automate → Dashboard → My automations.
• Locate the automation that is currently running.
• Open the row actions and click Stop.
• The current run ends immediately.

2) Inside the workflow using the Stop automation action

• Add a Stop automation action at the point where the run should end.
• When the workflow reaches this node, the run stops immediately.

3) When an Exit condition turns true

• Configure one or more Exit conditions for the automation.
• When any exit condition is satisfied, the automation stops automatically.

FYERS Mobile

You can also stop an automation from the FYERS mobile app.

• Open the FYERS app and go to Automate.
• Tap Dashboard and open My automations.
• Select the automation you want to manage.
• If the automation is running, the status is shown as Running.
• The bottom CTA changes to Stop.
• Tap Stop to immediately end the run.

If the automation is not running, the same screen shows a Run now button instead.

Note: Stopping an automation only ends the workflow execution in mobile. Open positions and pending orders remain unchanged unless explicitly handled.
