Use StopWorkspaces with a CLI

To stop an AutoStop WorkSpace

The following stop-workspaces example stops the specified WorkSpace. The WorkSpace must have a running mode of AutoStop.

aws workspaces stop-workspaces \
    --stop-workspace-requests WorkspaceId=ws-dk1xzr417

Output:

{
    "FailedRequests": []
}

For more information, see Stop and start an AutoStop WorkSpace in the Amazon WorkSpaces Administration Guide.

Example 1: Stops multiple WorkSpaces.

Stop-WKSWorkspace -WorkspaceId "ws-1a2b3c4d5","ws-6a7b8c9d0"

Example 2: Retrieves the collection of all your WorkSpaces and pipes the IDs to the -WorkSpaceId parameter of Stop-WKSWorkspace causing the WorkSpaces to be stopped.

Get-WKSWorkspaces | Stop-WKSWorkspace

Example 3: This example shows how to pass StopRequest objects defining the WorkSpaces to be stopped.

$arrRequest = @()
$request1 = New-Object Amazon.WorkSpaces.Model.StopRequest
$request1.WorkspaceId = 'ws-12345678'
$arrRequest += $request1
$request2 = New-Object Amazon.WorkSpaces.Model.StopRequest
$request2.WorkspaceId = 'ws-abcdefgh'
$arrRequest += $request2
Stop-WKSWorkspace -Request $arrRequest
