Pause Pipeline and Cancel a Submitted Job

with Amazon Elastic Transcoder · Transcoding & Format Conversion

Pause a pipeline and cancel a still-submitted job.

  1. Set the pipeline status to Paused so Elastic Transcoder stops starting new jobs while the cancel is prepared.
  2. Read the job and branch: only proceed to cancel when the job is still in the Submitted state, since cancel is rejected once processing begins.
  3. Cancel the still-submitted job now that the pipeline is paused and the job is confirmed cancellable.
What you'll need to have ready
  • pipelineId: The Id of the pipeline to pause before cancelling the job.
  • jobId: The Id of the job to cancel (must still be Submitted).
