Queued Jobs - Viewing or Cancelling?

The API does not appear to have an endpoint for viewing Queued Jobs, and they don't appear on the WebInterface.
How does can I see them, and more importantly, cancelled a job that is queued, but not started?
I'm hoping that it will be in the API again, as I have some PHP scripts that check there.

Hi gdpodesta,
Actually it does have an endpoint for queued jobs but it's undocumented. If you go to /api/json/v2/tickets you will get queued and running job tickets. But jobs will only get cancelled status once they start. So currently you cannot cancel queued jobs with immediate effect.

Ah, perfect. I've added a 60 seconds wait before the job, so I can do just that.
The Queued jobs was what I've been counting on being there. Thanks again!

Great! Just out of curiosity; why would you add 60 seconds wait before the job? Is that a "Hold" node or something else?

Firstly, all the Workflows are submitted with the API since they're but one pieces of the "Great Symphony of Ingestion", so there are a number of external processes that depend on things happening or not and existing or not.
So, with that, there are two reasons...we're using S3 to share a lot of files, so insuring that the objects "are available" is important, but then, when the Workflow starts, it gives me a small windows to Pause/Cancel it before it starts doing whatever it's going to do. And yes, i'ts a Hold Node.
