How to kill an heroku build that is in progress?
If you have a build going into production right now and need to stop it quickly:
heroku plugins:install heroku-builds
heroku builds:cancel -a YOUR_HEROKU_APP_NAME
The heroku-builds CLI plugin (heroku plugins:install heroku-builds
) has a command which will stop a running build:
$ heroku builds:cancel -a your-app-name
All builds will time out too after a time that can go between 15 minutes to 1 hour.
To view all builds run the following in your terminal:
heroku builds -a YOUR_APP_NAME
To cancel a specific (pending) build:
heroku builds:cancel -a YOUR_APP_NAME HEROKU_BUILD_ID
Update (4th July 2020):
If you see the message Warning: builds is not a heroku command
, run heroku plugins:install heroku-builds
and try again.
