cancelSearchJob
mutation · in the family Reading your records
What it does
Stop one of your own background searches — it ends as cancelled and keeps the matches found so far.
Cancel YOUR queued or running background search: the record flips to cancelled and the session's search slot frees at once; the machine notices at its next step boundary and keeps the partial matches it had — no execution is killed, nothing is lost. Only the job's OWNER (the same user AND the same session) may cancel — anyone else refuses AUTHZ/FORBIDDEN; a job outside your tenant, or none at all, is NOT_FOUND; a finished job refuses (terminal records are immutable). Requires the unrestricted capability on a USER session.
What happens
Only the person who started the search can cancel it; a finished search cannot be cancelled. Signing out cancels your running search for you.

Arguments

|---|---|---|---|
id | ID ID! | yes | The id of the record. |
Returns
SearchJob SearchJob! — the budget rule: at most 50000 records examined (the estimate refuses a plan that cannot fit, with the numbers) · 300 s from the start (past it the job is expired WITH its partials) · 400 machine steps. ONE running job per signed-in session (the SEARCHLOCK marker — a second start refuses CONFLICT/SEARCH_JOB_ACTIVE naming the holder). Lifecycle queued → running → done | cancelled | expired | failed: cancel is the owner's (cancelSearchJob) or the session's end; done stays listed, the other terminals are doomed-class. The generic wire is READ-ONLY (the two reads) — the bespokes own the writes: startSearchJob (THE PLAN GATE, then the per-family list-op offer AS THE CALLER — a family you may not list stops the plan before any read) · cancelSearchJob · searchJobMatches (gated by the READER's own list right over the plan's terminal family).
