Hello,

fairly new to rollup jobs here and i have created one called "new rollup" to play around with now i want to delete it but i have to stop it first and when i try to stop it i get this error

`POST _rollup/job/new rollup/_stop`

`{ "error" : "Incorrect HTTP method for uri [/_rollup/job/new?pretty=true] and method [POST], allowed: [PUT, DELETE, GET]", "status" : 405 }`

any guidance on how to stop this job?

regards,

Can you try `POST _rollup/job/new\ rollup/_stop` or `POST "_rollup/job/new rollup/_stop"`?

unfortunately those did not work but what did work was restarting elasticsearch and stopping the job before it started to index then deleted it.
