amazon web services - How to stop Lambda Step functions execution as Bulk (stop multiple executions at once)

Question

I created a Lambda Step Function flow that on one step it will wait until that step is resumed by callback Token. For testing purposes, I invoke the step function 1000 times. 600 invocations completed successfully but 400 are still in running state (because the process failed of DB connection fail) and I know that it will never resume. How can I stop the functions in bulk? Currently, I see only one option to stop execution on every single execution, but i have to do it 400 times which is a lot.

Found the answer thanks to @P?l Brattberg

aws stepfunctions list-executions
--state-machine-arn <STEP FUNCTION ARN>
--status-filter RUNNING
--query "executions[*].{executionArn:executionArn}"
--output text |
xargs -I {} aws stepfunctions stop-execution
--execution-arn {}
