Is there a way to view /cancel running backend tasks?

Hi, all,

thanks for all the great work

I'm wondering , if in a web tab, I started a long-run backend task, is there a way to view all the long running tasks and then preferably, an ID associated with each of the long-run tasks, user then has the option to kill these long running tasks ?

@yellowbean Check out the background task docs it shows how you can pause and check the status of tasks. You would have to add state vars that you update to set the task progress, which you can then check on the frontend and in other event handlers.
