This endpoint allows you to cancel an eligible scheduled transaction using the payout_id and transaction_id returned when the payout was created. Only transactions that have not yet been processed and have status=pending or status=in_process can be canceled, and the cancellation is irreversible. The cancellation request must be sent at least 12 hours before the scheduled execution date and time. On success, the request returns status 204.
