# Cancel a One Time or Recurring Scheduled Task

***One Time Tasks***: Unlike a Recurring Scheduled Task, a One Time Scheduled Task must be canceled via the Task History tab as it is not possible to cancel a One Time Scheduled Task via the Scheduled Tasks tab.

{% hint style="info" %}
You can only cancel Recurring tasks that have a Not Started or Received status from the Task History tab (Active, Completed and Failed tasks will be ignored).
{% endhint %}
