REST API
swamp serve exposes a REST API alongside its WebSocket interface. This page
documents the available HTTP endpoints.
Cancel Endpoints
Cancel a running execution via HTTP. These endpoints complement the CLI commands
(swamp workflow cancel, swamp model cancel) for use by external tooling,
CI/CD pipelines, or custom dashboards.
POST /api/v1/cancel/:type/:id
Cancel a single running execution by type and ID.
| Parameter | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
:type |
workflow-run or method-run |
The execution type to cancel. |
:id |
string | The execution's run ID. |
Authentication
Requires a Bearer token in the Authorization header — the same token used for
WebSocket authentication. When --auth-mode is none (deprecated), no token is
required.
Authorization: Bearer <token>Response
| Status | Body | Condition |
|---|---|---|
200 |
{ "status": "cancelled", "executionType": "...", "executionId": "..." } |
The execution was found and cancelled. |
401 |
"Unauthorized: token required" or "Unauthorized" |
Missing or invalid Bearer token. |
404 |
{ "status": "not_found", "message": "..." } |
No active execution with the given type/ID. |
