# Delete Pipeline Executions in Redis

### Introduction <a href="#introduction" id="introduction"></a>

Redis can be used as a backend storage that will store the pipeline executions. In the case that there is a stuck pipeline or the pipeline execution needs to be deleted the following steps an be taken to manually delete the executions.

### Prerequisites <a href="#prerequisites" id="prerequisites"></a>

#### Locate the Pipeline ID and Pipeline Execution ID <a href="#locate-the-pipeline-id-and-pipeline-execution-id" id="locate-the-pipeline-id-and-pipeline-execution-id"></a>

**Via Source**

Both pieces of information can be found in the execution details. Navigate to the pipeline, and go to **Execution Details** -> **Source** The pipeline id will be labeled `id` and will be one of the first lines. The execution id will be `execution_id` and will be towards the end.

**Via the URL of Resources in the Console**

The URL for the pipeline when editing the pipeline from the console also contains the ``Pipeline ID`/#/applications//executions/configure/****`` The URL for the permalink (next to the source location above) will contain the information about the `Pipeline Execution ID /#/applications//executions/details/****?stage=0&step=0&details=`

**Via Orca Logs**

The `Pipeline Execution ID` can also be found within the logs of the Orca instance, by running `kubectl logs -n deploy/spin-orca -f` Sometimes, locating the execution ID can be difficult unless it can be identified from any other executions that are running at the time

### Instructions <a href="#instructions" id="instructions"></a>

Display all executions from this pipeline: `zrange pipeline:executions:{pipeline_id} 0 -1 ​` 2. For each execution that you want to remove: `zrem pipeline:executions:{pipeline_id} {execution_id}​` 3. Delete the execution:

```
del pipeline:${execution_id}
del orchestration:${execution_id} ​
```
