# Cancel a wallet change

Stop a wallet deletion while it's still waiting out the hold.

`POST https://dash.402pay.co/api/v1/wallet/changes/{id}/cancel`

Stops a deletion that's waiting out its hold, so your wallet stays and payments keep going to it. It takes a person signed in to the dashboard, but no step-up, since nothing about where payments go changes. Canceling one that's already canceled returns it as it is.

### Path

- `id` (string, required): The wallet change's ID, such as `wcr_7QmVx2LpT9sKd4Rz`.

### Errors

- 403 `session_required` An API key sent the request. Only a person signed in to the dashboard can send.
- 404 `not_found` No wallet change of your business has that ID.
- 409 `wallet_change_applied` The hold is over and the change took effect, so there's nothing to cancel.

Any request can also fail on its key or its body. See [errors](https://developer.402pay.co/api/errors.md).

Request, Browser:

  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "402pay-Business": businessId,
  },
