Terminate removes the worker from your workforce. Termination is for workers you no longer need. If you only want to pause work temporarily, use the worker availability control instead.

​
What happens during termination

When you terminate a worker:
  • You are asked to confirm the action.
  • The worker is removed from your workforce.
  • Connected channels and triggers are cleaned up.
  • The worker should no longer process normal work.
Termination is destructive. Use it only when you are sure the worker should be removed.

​
Pause instead of terminate

Use the availability control when you want to temporarily stop a worker without deleting it. Pausing is better when:
  • You are investigating behavior
  • You are changing settings
  • You need a temporary operational hold
  • You may need the worker again later
