UnregisterTrigger

Remove a registered trigger

Request

Unregister a trigger to stop it from invoking its associated function.

Response

This message typically does not have a dedicated response. The framework will stop invoking the function via this trigger after processing the unregister request.

Examples

Unregister Trigger by ID

{
  "type": "unregistertrigger",
  "id": "http_webhook_handler"
}

Unregister Trigger with Type

{
  "type": "unregistertrigger",
  "id": "daily_report",
  "trigger_type": "cron"
}

Unregister Multiple Triggers

To unregister multiple triggers, send separate messages for each:

{
  "type": "unregistertrigger",
  "id": "trigger_1"
}

{
  "type": "unregistertrigger",
  "id": "trigger_2"
}

{
  "type": "unregistertrigger",
  "id": "trigger_3"
}

Error Cases

Trigger Not Found

If the trigger ID doesn’t exist, the framework may silently ignore the request or log a warning. The exact behavior depends on the framework implementation.

No error response is sent to the client in most cases, as unregister operations are idempotent.

Notes

• Unregistering a trigger does not unregister the associated function
• The trigger_type field is optional and defaults to None if not provided
• Unregister operations are idempotent - unregistering a non-existent trigger is safe
• In-flight invocations triggered before unregistration may still complete
• The trigger will stop accepting new events immediately after unregistration
• The associated function remains registered and can be invoked directly or by other triggers
