# Bulk Stop Snapshot Topics

`POST /topics/bulk/stop-snapshot`

Stop snapshot for sources identified by the selected topics.

Accepts topic DB IDs, resolves them to their source connectors, and stops
any running snapshots on those sources.

Note: Because snapshots run at the source level, stopping affects all topics
for that source, not just the selected ones.

Automatically detects the running snapshot type (incremental or blocking)
and uses the appropriate cancellation method:
- Incremental: Cancels via signal table, streaming continues.
- Blocking: Restarts the connector, streaming resumes after restart.

Returns partial success results - continues processing even if individual stop operations fail.
