Telegram bot to stop a specific task

Easily pause specific tasks through Telegram, because life doesn’t wait.

  • Instantly when the trigger is activated
  • Instantly when receiving a text message (telegrambot → webhook)
  • Stop a task (plugin_delay → stop_task_by_id)

Ever been in a situation where a task or bot keeps running in the background at the wrong time—wasting resources, generating errors, or even sending unwanted notifications? Manually stopping these tasks on demand is a headache, often requiring you to log into various panels or hunt down the right command. Every minute you spend fiddling with these controls means lost productivity, reduced responsiveness, and in some cases, increased costs due to runaway automations.

This formula from Botize instantly solves the hassle: just send a Telegram message with the 'stop' command to your connected bot, and it halts your designated task on the spot. No more endless clicks or admin panels—your Telegram chat becomes your remote control. As soon as the automation catches your command, it stops the task and immediately confirms the action, so you’re always in the loop and fully in charge of your automations.

Ready to regain control in seconds? Follow the step-by-step with this formula to set up your Telegram-triggered stop command—customizable to fit your use case and accessible right where you chat. If you prefer, the ready-to-use automation link is just a click away. Let’s empower your workflow!
