Note: GitHub-hosted runners are not currently supported on GitHub Enterprise Server. You can see more information about planned future support on the GitHub public roadmap.

Removing a runner from a repository

Notes:

  • This procedure permanently removes the self-hosted runner. If you only want to temporarily stop a runner from being assigned jobs, you can either shut down the machine or stop the run application. The runner will remain assigned in an "Offline" state, and won't execute any jobs until you restart the runner using the run application.
  • A self-hosted runner is automatically removed from GitHub Enterprise Server if it has not connected to GitHub Actions for more than 14 days. An ephemeral self-hosted runner is automatically removed from GitHub Enterprise Server if it has not connected to GitHub Actions for more than 1 day.
  • Just-in-time (JIT) runners can only run a single job. If JIT runners never run a job, they will automatically be removed. To remove a JIT runner before automatic removal, you must remove the JIT runner on GitHub.

To remove a self-hosted runner from a user repository you must be the repository owner. Organization owners can remove a runner from a repository in the organization.

We recommend that you also have access to the self-hosted runner machine.

For information about how to remove a self-hosted runner with the REST API, see "REST API endpoints for self-hosted runners."

Alternatively, if you don't have access to the repository, organization, or enterprise on GitHub Enterprise Server to remove a runner, but you would like to re-use the runner machine, then you can delete the .runner file inside the self-hosted runner application directory (that is, the directory into which you downloaded and unpacked the runner software). This allows the runner to be registered without having to re-download the self-hosted runner application.

  1. On GitHub, navigate to the main page of the repository.

  2. Under your repository name, click Settings. If you cannot see the "Settings" tab, select the dropdown menu, then click Settings.

  3. In the left sidebar, click Actions, then click Runners.

  4. In the list of runners, click on the name of the runner you'd like to configure.

  5. Click Remove.

  6. You will see instructions for removing the self-hosted runner. Complete either of the following steps to remove the runner, depending on whether it is still accessible:

    • If you have access to the runner machine: Follow the on-screen instructions for your machine's operating system to run the removal command. The instructions include the required URL and an automatically-generated, time-limited token.

      The removal command does the following tasks:

      • Removes the runner from GitHub Enterprise Server.
      • Removes any self-hosted runner application configuration files on the machine.
      • Removes any services configured if not running in interactive mode.

    • If you don't have access to the machine: Click Force remove this runner to force GitHub Enterprise Server to remove the runner.

Removing a runner from an organization

Notes:

  • This procedure permanently removes the self-hosted runner. If you only want to temporarily stop a runner from being assigned jobs, you can either shut down the machine or stop the run application. The runner will remain assigned in an "Offline" state, and won't execute any jobs until you restart the runner using the run application.

  2. Under your organization name, click Settings. If you cannot see the "Settings" tab, select the dropdown menu, then click Settings.

Removing a runner from an enterprise

Notes:

  • This procedure permanently removes the self-hosted runner. If you only want to temporarily stop a runner from being assigned jobs, you can either shut down the machine or stop the run application. The runner will remain assigned in an "Offline" state, and won't execute any jobs until you restart the runner using the run application.

To remove a self-hosted runner from an enterprise, you must be an enterprise owner. We recommend that you also have access to the self-hosted runner machine. For information about how to remove a self-hosted runner with the REST API, see the enterprise endpoints in the GitHub Actions REST API.

Alternatively, if you don't have access to the repository, organization, or enterprise on GitHub Enterprise Server to remove a runner, but you would like to re-use the runner machine, then you can delete the .runner file inside the self-hosted runner application directory (that is, the directory into which you downloaded and unpacked the runner software). This allows the runner to be registered without having to re-download the self-hosted runner application.

  1. In the top-right corner of GitHub Enterprise Server, click your profile photo, then click Enterprise settings.

    Screenshot of the drop-down menu that appears when you click the profile photo on GitHub Enterprise Server. The "Enterprise settings" option is highlighted in a dark orange outline.

  2. On the left side of the page, in the enterprise account sidebar, click Policies.

  3. Under " Policies", click Actions.

  4. Click the Runners tab.

  5. In the list of runners, click on the name of the runner you'd like to configure.
