Scrapes

Stop scrape

Stop a live scrape: keep what it delivered and refund the rest.

POSTapi.leadity.io/v1/scrapes/{id}/stop
Scope writeMCP tool stop_scrape

Stops a live scrape. It finishes the searches already in flight, keeps and charges only the leads it delivered, and refunds the rest of the hold when it settles. A stopped scrape cannot be resumed: to search further, place a new order, which skips the ground already swept. A scrape that is no longer live answers not_active. Needs a key with the write scope.
