๐ŸŽฏAPI Stability
Long-TermThis API is stable and will remain supported across versions with minimal breaking changes.

Summary

The disableEventForwarder() mutation disables an active event forwarder in LogScale, halting event forwarding to its configured destination. The forwarder configuration is retained intact and can be reactivated at any time. Use this mutation to suspend forwarding temporarily, for example during destination maintenance or troubleshooting. To resume forwarding, use enableEventForwarder().

Syntax

graphql
disableEventForwarder(
      input: DisableEventForwarderInput!
   ): Boolean!

The mutation accepts a required input argument of type DisableEventForwarderInput!, which contains the unique identifier of the event forwarder to disable. Use the eventForwarders() query to retrieve that identifier. The mutation returns a non-null Boolean! confirming the operation succeeded.
