Clear stale Databricks runs automatically
Keep long-running work from sitting unnoticed in your workspace.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Cancel Databricks Job Run
Tool to cancel a Databricks job run asynchronously. Use when you need to terminate a running job. The run will be terminated shortly after the request completes. If the run is already in a terminal state (TERMINATED, SKIPPED, or INTERNAL_ERROR), this is a no-op.
Why this helps
Stale runs consume attention and resources when nobody remembers to stop them.
- Reduce unattended runs
- Make cleanup routine
- Receive an exception report
