Cancel a building block run

Johannes Rudolph
I'm developing a new Building Block that triggers a GitHub actions pipeline and try to use the new source/step reporting API. During development, my pipeline sometimes fails due to a coding error in the pipeline. In this case, the building block run gets "stuck" in meshStack. I notice
- little visual indication that the run is stuck, i.e. the "Prepare run step" is green but nothing more indicates that it's waiting (for my pipeline or any other system) to report status
- there's no way to cancel the "stuck run", so that I can trigger a new run with a "fixed" version of my pipeline code
The only workaround I have found is trying to purge the building block and create a new one. Purging the BB seems not to be immediately effective, and this litters my development environment with test building blocks

Hi Johannes, sorry for the inconveniences. I do understand that providing a visual indicator for a stuck run in addition to easily try again would help develop your service. At the moment we can't provide you with a timeline for those features but will get back to you if we do.
