Stop a service for the daemon's lifetime, or a task's runs (hook token)
const url = 'http://localhost:9477/api/hooks/tasks/example/stop?waitTimeout=120';const options = {method: 'POST'};
try { const response = await fetch(url, options); const data = await response.json(); console.log(data);} catch (error) { console.error(error);}curl --request POST \ --url 'http://localhost:9477/api/hooks/tasks/example/stop?waitTimeout=120'Same as POST /api/tasks/{taskName}/stop, but authenticated with one of the unit’s hook_tokens from runwisp.toml instead of a session: Authorization: Bearer <token>, or (less safely) ?token=. manual_trigger does not apply. Enforced even with RUNWISP_AUTH=off. An unknown unit, a unit without tokens, and a wrong token all return the same 401; a valid token whose allow list omits this action gets 403. After 20 rejected tokens in a minute, the client IP gets 429 until the window slides.
For a service: cancels every live instance and marks it stopped; the supervisor stops refilling slots until a restart is issued or the daemon is restarted. For a task: cancels any active run and drops anything queued; the cron schedule keeps firing (pause it with POST /api/tasks/{taskName}/pause). With wait=true: returns once everything has ended, or 409 if that takes longer than waitTimeout.
Parameters

Section titled “Path Parameters”Task or service name
Task or service name
Query Parameters
Section titled “Query Parameters”The hook token, for callers that can only set a URL. Less safe than the header: URLs end up in proxy and CI logs. Ignored when an Authorization header is sent.

Hold the request until the action finishes. run, and start/restart on a task: until the run ends, then return it with exitCode and endReason. stop: until every run or instance has ended. Not supported for start/restart on a service. Best for short tasks; long waits may exceed reverse-proxy timeouts.

With wait=true, the maximum seconds to hold the request open. Capped below the server’s 5-minute write timeout. On timeout, run/start/restart return the run in its current (non-terminal) state and stop returns 409; the action itself keeps going.
