Documentation for Bamboo 4.0.x. Documentation for earlier versions of Bamboo is available too.

The instructions on this page describe how to stop a plan or job build that is running.

Note that if your Bamboo server runs on Windows, it may only be possible to stop an active build by going to the Windows Task Manager and ending the relevant processes.

To start a building a plan manually, see Triggering a plan build manually.

To stop an active plan build:

  1. Click Dashboard and then the All Plans tab.
  2. Click the 'Stop' icon next to the active plan you want to stop.

Stopping an active job build

To prevent Bamboo submitting a job to the build queue, refer to Disabling or deleting a job.

To stop an active job build:

  1. Click Dashboard and then the All Plans tab.
  2. Click the name of the plan.
  3. Click the 'Stop' icon next to the active job you want to stop (in the 'Current Activity' section).

    It would be helpful if you could document the name of the relevant processes. Disabling the agent doesn't seem to help. Perhaps showing a pid somewhere? At least for a running build. I use ManagementFactory.getRuntimeMXBean().getName() in scripts, but its a pain its not automatically part of Bamboo display.
