Products: Nintex Workflow 2013
A common request we see is "How do I cancel/terminate a group of list item workflows that are in a state of 'Error Occurred'?" This article provides instructions on how to accomplish this.
Run the below (attached as well as a *.txt file for your convenience) PowerShell script (PowerShell ISE works well) from a SharePoint Server:
| PowerShell Script |
|---|
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.Powershell -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue function Cancel-SPWorkflow(){
PARAM
(
[Parameter(ValueFromPipeline=$true)] [Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWorkflow] $SPWorkflow
)
BEGIN {
}
END {
}
PROCESS {
[Microsoft.SharePoint.Workflow.SPWorkflowManager]::CancelWorkflow($SPworkflow)
} } function Get-SPWorkflow(){
PARAM
(
[Parameter(ValueFromPipeline=$true)] [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPListItem] $SPListItem
)
BEGIN {
}
END {
}
PROCESS {
$SPListItem.Workflows
} } $(Get-SPWeb http://contoso.com).Lists["DocumentLibrary"].Items | Get-SPWorkflow | where {[String]$_.StatusText -match [String]"Error"} | Cancel-SPWorkflow |
|
To use the script, replace http://contoso.com and DocumentLibrary with the URL of the site and list title you wish to execute the script against.
