Inactivate the Script: You can inactivate the script to prevent it from running in the future. However, this will not stop a script that is currently executing. 2. Undeploy the Script: You can undeploy the script to stop it from executing in the future. This will not stop a script that is currently executing, but it can prevent it from re-scheduling itself. 3. Implement a Kill Switch: If you want to have more control over the execution of the script, you can implement a 'kill switch'. This would involve adding a condition in your script that checks the value of a checkbox (or some other field) on a custom record. If the checkbox is checked, the script would stop executing. This would look something like this:

if (_myCustomKillswitchCheckbox_ === true) return;

. This would need to be placed in critical places in your script, especially in loops that take a long time to process. Please note that you cannot use the scheduled script's parameters for the checkbox, as those parameters are cached when the script is called. Instead, you would need to have a standalone custom record, with a known internal id so you can just use

search.lookupFields(…)

to get your kill switch. Remember, these methods will not stop a script that is currently executing. Once a script has started, it will continue to run until it has completed.
