# Stop a Scheduled Trigger

Open the agent, find the trigger, and deactivate or delete it. Deactivating keeps the config. Deleting removes it.

## On an agent

1. Open the [agent](https://www.gumloop.com/agents).
2. Open **Triggers**.
3. Choose **Deactivate** to pause it, or **Delete** if you do not need it again.

Deactivating every trigger is how you switch an agent off without retiring it. The agent, connectors, and trigger configs stay intact.

## Good to know

* A deactivated trigger does not fire and does not poll.
* One-time scheduled triggers delete themselves after they run, success or fail.
* Deleting cannot be undone. Recreate it if you still need it.
* If a run is already in flight, stopping the trigger does not cancel that run. Cancel the run from history if you need to.
* You can only deactivate or delete a trigger you created, unless you are the agent **Owner** or an **Org Admin**. See [Who Can Manage Triggers?](/help/triggers/who-can-manage-triggers).
