Delete Action

Delete a scheduled action by its handle in the Rule Engine

🚧

Preview Status

All Rule Engine actions are currently in PREVIEW phase. When managing actions:

  • Monitor action execution results
  • Review scheduled actions regularly
  • Report any issues encountered to our support team

This endpoint allows you to delete a specific scheduled action by its handle from the Rule Engine. Once deleted, the action will no longer be executed at its scheduled time. This operation is useful for canceling actions that are no longer needed or were scheduled incorrectly.

Key Features

  • Delete a specific action by its unique handle
  • Prevent execution of unwanted scheduled actions
  • Clean up obsolete or incorrectly configured actions

Important Notes

  • Irreversible Operation: Once an action is deleted, it cannot be recovered
  • Pre-execution Only: You can only delete actions that haven't been executed yet (state is new)
  • Immediate Effect: The deletion takes effect immediately and the action will be removed from the schedule
