Enable or pause a Play
Updated November 5, 2026 · 1 min read
Turn a Play on when its knowledge, Skills, and a test run look right, or pause it any time without losing its setup.
Open the Play
- In the left nav, open Plays and select the one you want to turn on or pause.
Toggle Enabled
- In the Play's header, next to Run Play, switch Enabled on or off.
FAQ
What happens when I pause a Play?
The Play stops running on new Triggers or live events immediately. Nothing is deleted — Skills, Guards, knowledge, and Results are untouched.
Does pausing delete its Skills and Guards?
No. Enabled only controls whether the Play runs. Its configuration stays exactly as you left it, so you can turn it back on at any time.
Can I still run it manually while it's paused?
No — Run Play requires the Play to be enabled. Turn it on first, run it, then pause it again if you only wanted a one-off test.
