# Toggle Paradime Bolt Schedule

> Add a Toggle Paradime Bolt Schedule command to suspend or activate another Bolt schedule from within a schedule using the Paradime CLI on demand.

Suspend or reactivate a Bolt schedule from within another schedule, so you can pause processing during maintenance windows and resume it later.

## Prerequisites

* Only UI-based schedules can be suspended or reactivated with this command.
* API credentials generated in your Paradime workspace with **Bolt schedules admin** capability, set as [Bolt schedule environment variables](/products/settings/environment-variables/bolt-schedule-env-variables):
  * `PARADIME_API_ENDPOINT`
  * `PARADIME_API_SECRET`
  * `PARADIME_WORKSPACE_UID`

## Usage

Add the **Toggle Paradime Bolt Schedule** command to your schedule and enter the command to run. Schedules are identified by their **slug**:

```bash theme={"system"}
paradime bolt schedule suspend spinning-pachy-b0y15d
paradime bolt schedule unsuspend spinning-pachy-b0y15d
```

Typically `suspend` and `unsuspend` live in two separate schedules that run at different times. Use the `$PARADIME_SCHEDULE_NAME` variable to let a schedule suspend itself.
