📢 Breaking change announcement: workflow execution cancellation

Hey Data Workflows users!

TL;DR If you’re using the workflow execution cancellation endpoint, with the python SDK or without, you will have to update your workflow execution cancellation calls before 29/05/2024. More information below.

In our push towards making the Data Workflows API generally available in the June release, we aim to ensure a consistent and expected experience across the API. For this reason, we’ve decided to make a breaking change to the workflow execution cancellation endpoint. 

Endpoint changes

In summary, the cancellation endpoint now only allows the cancellation of a single execution at a time instead of allowing multiple executions to be cancelled in one call. 

The updated API documentation can be found here. The python SDK, starting from version 7.42.0, will now point to the new endpoint. An example call to the new endpoint using the Python SDK can be found here.

Timeline

The new endpoint is already available for use. To assist with the transition, the old endpoint will remain accessible until 29/05/2024. On this day, the old endpoint will be permanently disabled.
