Cancel an order before it is made

POST
/v1/orders/{id}/cancel
curl --request POST \
--url https://api.pixonaut.app/v1/orders/example/cancel \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>'

Operation ID: orders.cancel

A secret key, or a connected store’s integration key or a studio member holding orders:update. Asks the order’s printshop to stop it, and moves it to cancelled, a final status, only once the printshop says it did: order.cancelled is emitted. An order in held, awaiting_prints, submitted, queued, outcome_unknown can be asked about; one already cancelled is answered unchanged. An order still waiting for its prints (awaiting_prints) is cancelled at once, without asking a printshop, which has not been handed it. An order left at its printshop is refused 409 order_at_printshop, whose cause says why: made (printed or shipped), begun (the printshop has begun it and did not cancel it), cannot_cancel (its printshop cannot stop orders), not_connected (its printshop is no longer connected), or status_moved (the printshop cancelled it, but it shipped meanwhile). Ask the printshop. A failed order is refused 409 order_status_not_allowed, and one whose submission has not been answered yet 409 order_in_flight. A printshop that could not be reached is 503 cancel_unavailable, and the order stands; retryable says whether asking again may work. Refunds are your store’s: cancelling an order moves no money.
