$.flow.exit() stops only the current step?

Help

Hey,

I’m facing a problem with $.flow.exit(). I seems that it stops only the curent step and not aborting the whole workflow. Is it a feature or a bug ? And how can I abort the execution of the following steps (see picture).

Thanks in advance !

If you want to abort the workflow with an error, you can just throw new Error('message'); in a Node.js code step.

If you want to abort the workflow without error, use a boolean variable + a filter step.

@ag any chance that’s a replayed event that you’re looking at? I might’ve seen a bug with surfacing stale step results under certain circumstances, but return $.flow.exit() should definitely end the workflow execution and not just the step (I just verified in a workflow).

Hello Danny,

With your message I have actually found the problem.

I just used $.flow.exit() and it stopped the step but not the flow.

But I did it as it was in you message (with returning the result) return $.flow.exit() and it actually stopped the whole flow.

Thanks !
