How to Programmatically Cancel a Running Task Started via Webhook

·Jan 23, 2026 06:45 PM·

Is it possible to programmatically cancel a running task? We kick off tasks via a webhook, and would also like to be able to cancel them if some action occurs outside the loop/context of the task.

Looks like we could call the followUpUrl we get from the response of calling the initial webhook endpoint, and could have it handle follow up requests in the same task and cancel all timers / end the task? https://docs.lindy.ai/skills/by-lindy/webhooks#follow-up-behavior
