Note – If you check in the above screenshot, scheduled tasks do not have an option to revert as we mentioned earlier. So once you revert any scheduled task, it will give you an alert as shown below.

Delete

Through this action, you can delete any particular scheduled task.

Note – Deleting a scheduled task does not mean that it will delete the functionality of that task. It just deletes the job from the scheduled tasks list. For example, if you want to delete job_242 from the below-scheduled tasks list then you can do so by clicking the Delete button.

If you click Ok in the below alert box, it deletes that particular task quickly.

After the delete action, you will not see the deleted job in the above list as shown below.
