You cannot choose to stop and wait if the execution is already in a Stopping state. You can choose to stop and abandon an execution that is already in a Stopping state. :: aws codepipeline stop-pipeline-execution \ --pipeline-name MyFirstPipeline \ --pipeline-execution-id d-EXAMPLE \ --reason "Stopping pipeline after the build action is done" This command returns no output.
