Stop runs

Stop a run

Stop a run from the W&B App or programmatically.

Programmatically

1. Navigate to the terminal or code editor where you initialized the run.
2. Press Ctrl+D to stop the run.

For example, following the preceding instructions, your terminal might looks similar to the following:

KeyboardInterrupt
wandb: 🚀 View run legendary-meadow-2 at: https://wandb.ai/nico/history-blaster-4/runs/o8sdbztv
wandb: Synced 5 W&B file(s), 0 media file(s), 0 artifact file(s) and 1 other file(s)
wandb: Find logs at: ./wandb/run-20241106_095857-o8sdbztv/logs

Navigate to the W&B App to confirm the run is no longer active:

1. Navigate to the project that your run was logging to.
2. Select the name of the run.

You can find the name of the run that you stop from the output of your terminal or code editor. For example, in the preceding example, the name of the run is legendary-meadow-2.

3. Choose the Overview tab.

Next to the State field, the run’s state changes from running to Killed.
