Canceling a Collection

Cancelling A Collection Job

There are a few reasons a user might need to cancel a job once it has started collecting. A common reason is that a data source configuration is incorrect and the user wants to change this, but a data source configuration cannot be updated while a job is active for that data source.

To cancel a job, click the Stop Collection button in the left side navigation on the data source page. Once you’ve done this, the Panoply system will clean up any intermediate processes and terminate the job.

Jobs can also be canceled from the Jobs screen.

Or on the Data Sources Screen, on the top right, where the Collect Data button was.
