Allow Project Triggers to Be Toggled On/Off

Nate Goethel

You currently can define project-level triggers to kick off workflows on a schedule. It would be nice to be able to easily toggle these triggers on or off instead of needing to delete and re-add them if I need them to be paused.

A user on Bitbucket Cloud is also asking for exactly this. They run multiple nightly schedule triggers and need to pause individual triggers during maintenance without losing the configuration.

Nate Goethel you can disable the webhook through Github's webhook settings if you need to momentarily pause sending. It's under the repos settings -> Webhooks -> "Active" near the bottom of the page .

Nathan Fish I don't want to turn off the webhook, I want to be able to stop the triggers defined within the CircleCI UI (Project settings > Triggers) with a simple toggle.

Nathan Fish

Nate Goethel totally understand you would like to see it in the CircleCI UI but isn't the outcome the same?

Nate Goethel

Nathan Fish not really, no. In this case it has nothing to do with the Github webhooks. I have defined triggers directly in CircleCI that I want to be able to just turn on or off.
