Hi @pawnies20. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "kill or modify a schedule task" -- could you elaborate a bit more on what you want to achieve? Thanks.

I did like this:

   print ("Starting log...")
   schedule.every(20).minutes.do(get_weather_predictions)

   while 1:
      try:
         schedule.run_pending()
         time.sleep(2)
      except KeyboardInterrupt:
         print("Stopping scheduler")
         schedule.clear()
         print("Closing log")
         writer.close()
         break

Schedule.clear() works well, many thanx
But if i want to canceled a specific job what can i do?
schedule.cancel_job() or by returning schedule.CancelJob   seems don't work with me?
Thank you

to dbader:

I only want to canceled a specific Schedule task.
Robomotic solution works fine but delete all active tasks

Hi @pawnies20 ,

you could do something like this:

def job_that_executes_once():
    # Do some work ...
    return schedule.CancelJob

schedule.today.at('10:30').do(job_that_executes_once)

Basically you let the job cancel itself the first time it executes.
