# Cancel one scheduled payment (BETA)

> > **Beta** — early access.

Finalizes a single still-scheduled payment as cancelled. No signature is required - schedule rows are bookkeeping, not authorization (they are created by a plain API-key call); the signed grant is the MANDATE, which this does not touch. New payments can be instructed under the same mandate at any time. Executed, failed, and already-cancelled rows are not cancellable; a cancel racing the cron at the exact fire moment loses cleanly (the status guard never overwrites an executed payment).




## OpenAPI

````yaml /openapi.yaml post /scheduled-payments/{scheduled_payment_id}/cancel
openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  title: Dakota Platform API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Combined API specification for Dakota Platform services:

    - Issuance API: Asset minting and burning operations

    - Onboarding API: Know Your Business/Customer verification

    - On/Off Ramp API: Managing on-ramp and off-ramp accounts

    - Recipients API: Managing destinations for KYB'd entities

    - Transactions API: Viewing transaction history across platform operations


    ## Authentication and API Headers


    All API endpoints require the following headers:


    - `x-idempotency-key`: Required for all POST endpoints to ensure request
    idempotency

    - `x-api-key`: Required for authentication across all endpoints


    Note: On /applications endpoints you need a token for authentication instead
    of a x-api-key

    - `x-application-token`: Required for authentication on public /applications
    endpoints (alternative to `x-api-key` where documented)



    ## Rate Limits


    Requests are rate limited per API key. Every response includes the following
    headers:


    | Header | Description |

    | --- | --- |

    | `X-RateLimit-Limit` | Maximum requests allowed in the current one-minute
    window. |

    | `X-RateLimit-Remaining` | Requests remaining in the current window. |

    | `X-RateLimit-Reset` | Absolute Unix timestamp (seconds since epoch) when
    the current rate-limit window resets. |


    When a request is throttled (`429`), responses also include `Retry-After`
    with seconds to wait before retrying.

            the fiat currency (e.g. USD) the deposit converts to; for a direct
            crypto payment it equals `asset`. DO NOT PAIR THIS WITH `amount`:
            for a converted payment `amount` is the DEPOSIT — what leaves the
            wallet, in the deposit's own asset — and it is grossed up so the
            payee nets the requested figure, so a real payment reads amount
            0.211112 and pays out 0.19. The rate is 1:1; the fee is not. This
            response carries no output amount, so a converted payment's payout

            solana-devnet while network_id is base-sepolia. Equals `network_id`
