Stop Realtime Updates

Published July 2026
   •    Updated today

Plugin details

Pause and resume Bubble realtime updates from workflows for pages that display high-churn data types. Use it to reduce avoidable realtime refresh work in tables, repeating groups, admin grids, logs, dashboards, and other pages where records update frequently but users only need a stable snapshot.
- Pause all realtime updates during sensitive workflows, bulk edits, imports, or review sessions
- Temporarily unsubscribe selected Things using a list of unique IDs, useful for visible table rows
- Subscribe selected Things again when the page or table should become live again
- Resume normal Bubble realtime behavior without forcing a page refresh
- Helps with avoidable browser realtime update work; it does not reduce WU from writes, searches, backend workflows, or API calls that still run
