# Pause workflow record

> Manual hold on one enrollment: active or waiting to paused_manual; the dispatcher skips paused records, so nothing is sent until resume. Open tasks freeze in place. A repeat on paused_manual answers already_paused true. Pausing a paused_on_reply record is 409 invalid_transition (the reply hold is the reply flow's); a row the person gate holds is 409 too, exit is its one verb; terminal is 409. reason (max 512) lands in the event payload only.

Contract:
- MCP tool `pause_workflow_record`, registry package `mcp.playtables/workflow_records`, mount `playtables.journeys`.
- Operation `action`, response envelope `action`.
- Flags: none.



## OpenAPI

````yaml /api-reference/playtables/openapi.yaml post /api/workflow-records/{sid}/pause

info:
  title: 'GetSales public contract: gs.service.playtables'
  description: >-
    The data platform and the outreach engine: tables of people and companies,
    their enrichment columns, cells and runs, the data sources that feed them,
    sender profiles, the stoplist, the activity feed, the credit ledger, and the
    multichannel workflows with their per-person journeys and tasks.


    GENERATED. This document is projected from the Zod MCP tool registry in
    `product/mcp/gs.mcp` (one tool per public endpoint, 1:1). Do not edit it by
    hand; edit the tool definition and regenerate with `pnpm openapi:public`.


    Surface: the public `/api` contract of `gs.service.playtables`, 142
    operations. This is the only OpenAPI document the platform publishes.
    Internal (`/internal`) and health endpoints are deliberately absent: they
    are not part of any contract, they can change without notice, and the
    service source is their only description.


    Conventions:

    - Auth is a bearer JWT, optionally narrowed by the `Team-SID` header.

    - Every success body is an MCP envelope: `success: true` plus one typed
    `operation` shape (`search`, `get`, `create`, `update`, `delete`, `metrics`,
    `group_by`, `action`), and a `meta` block with `trace_id` for support.

    - Every failure is the same `McpError` envelope with a code from a fixed
    16-code taxonomy, so a client maps errors once.

    - Lists page with `page_size` (0 to 500, default 50) plus an opaque forward
    `cursor`; `page_size: 0` returns counts only.

    - On `GET` and `DELETE`, object-valued query parameters (`filter`, `sort`)
    travel as JSON text and array-valued ones repeat as `name[]=value`.

    - The MCP-only `_meta` field (usage analytics) never reaches the backend and
    is not part of this contract.
