This is probably a newbie error, but I've created an Export to Drive task in a for loop using the Python API in Colab that is ridiculously huge. It keeps downloading data to my drive, even after I've shut Colab. I had somehow excepted that killing my Colab runtime would stop all server-side processes in Earth Engine. I was wrong.
How do I kill these processes? Will they get killed if I just let my drive fill up?
I think I figured it out: use the Earth engine command line tool: https://developers.google.com/earth-engine/guides/command_line
It let's user access and manage assets and tasks. Install the Python API, authenticate your GEE account and run this script to delete batches of blunders...
import os
from subprocess import PIPE, Popen
blunders=30
command = 'earthengine task list'
with Popen(command, stdout=PIPE, stderr=None, shell=True) as process:
output = process.communicate()[0].decode("utf-8")
print(output)
output=output.splitlines()
for c in range(blunders):
command ='earthengine task cancel '+output[c][0:24]
os.system(command)
