Canceling an already canceled tap intent returns it unchanged. An approval cannot be canceled: if the person confirmed first, the cancel is refused with `tap_intent.already_approved`, with `tap_intent.already_consumed` once you consumed it, or with `tap_intent.expired` once the approval lapsed. To drop an approval, do not consume it. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi.json post /v1/tap-intents/{tap_intent_id}/cancel openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Endstate API version: 0.1.0 description: Endstate developer API for chip verification and ownership workflows. servers: - url: https://api2.endstate.io description: Production - url: https://api-staging.endstate.io description: Staging security: [] paths: /v1/tap-intents/{tap_intent_id}/cancel: post: tags: - Tap intents summary: Cancel a tap intent description: >- Cancels a pending tap intent and sends `tap_intent.canceled`.
