Cancel an Analysis or Delete an Analysis Record

You can cancel a job while it's running, or delete the record of a job after it finishes running.

To cancel a job, click the Cancel button in the row for an analysis. The status for the job changes initially to Cancel Requested, and then to Job Canceled when the application completes the operation.

You can cancel a job only while it's running. But the Risk and Security Snapshot Report page refreshes only when you take some action, such as opening it. So if the page is already open when the job reaches completion, the Cancel button remains available even though it can no longer be used. If you click the Cancel button after a job is complete, however, the page simply refreshes: the Cancel button is removed and the job status is updated.

To delete the record of a completed job from the Risk and Security Snapshot Report page, click the Delete button in its row. Then respond to a confirmation message. When you delete the record of a job, the report associated with it is no longer available.
