Actual exam question for GitHub's GitHub-Actions exam
Question #: 6
Topic #: 2
Disabling a workflow allows you to stop a workflow from being triggered without having to delete the file from the repo. In which scenarios would temporarily disabling a workflow be most useful? (Choose two.)

Suggested Answer: A,B Vote an answer

If a workflow depends on an external service that is down, disabling the workflow temporarily will prevent it from running and sending requests to the service, thus avoiding failed requests or unnecessary retries.
If a workflow is causing a negative impact on external services by generating too many requests or incorrect data due to a bug, temporarily disabling the workflow will stop this behavior while the issue is fixed.
