Is there a way to programmatically close a particular instance of a popup? My old use case for popups/alerts was to set a global variable with a Sticky and Hover state of true/false. And my display workflow would not close the alert if it was hovering or a sticky. But since popup variables are scoped I cant access within the popup, nor do I see a way how to close the specific instance via workflow–only close all instances ---

Not 100% sure to understand, but in the new Popups, there is 2 workflows available one that closes the actual popup, and the one called “close all Popups” which actually is not closing all popups but a workflow where you select the specific popup that you want to close. Hope this helps. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/2X/8/88d9c238725f90528e7787eae623899bc68240af.png) ---

Hi Daniel, welcome back 👋 Have you tried what Antoine said? You can call that workflow action from anywhere and choose what popup to close. ---

I don’t have that option. I remember seeing it, which is what was making me question my sanity. But take a look. I only have “all”. ![Screenshot 2025-06-03 at 10.32.14 AM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/2X/2/24f6d20526026706f06ed45f250255a5666e32a9.png) ---

It’s a naming mistake that I already passed to the team. This action is actually : “Close X popup” Try it and you’ll see ---

Unfortunately, I do not see the option to close a specific instance when selected the Close all - just simple the option to close all of a certain type. Is there something I’m not seeing? I could’ve sworn I saw the instance one previously. ![Screenshot 2025-06-03 at 11.39.29 AM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/2X/b/be5df2fb98e40ef7dbd86dc691619fd993e840fc.png) ---

Inside the “Popup model” dropdown, that’s where you actually have your dropdown chosen, which is “Toasts/Simple”. If you have multiple dropdowns in your app, you’ll see that that dropdown will allow you to choose one of your popups to close. I was confused by this workflow action originally because I thought that it was going to close all popups until I saw that the dropdown under “Popup model” only have a check mark next to one of my popups ---

I Daniel, have you found a solution?
