The unique ID that is assigned by a merchant to identify a payment request. paymentRequestId and paymentId cannot both be null. Special characters are not supported. If both paymentRequestId and paymentId are provided, paymentId takes precedence.
Response parameters
The request result, which contains information related to the request result, such as status and error codes.
Result status. Possible values are:
- S: Indicates that the result status is successful.
- F: Indicates that the result status is failed.
- U: Indicates that the result status is unknown.
The actual execution completion time of the payment cancellation process, that is, the date and time when the payment cancellation succeeds. The value follows the ISO 8601 standard. This parameter is returned only when the cancellation succeeds.
More information
To cancel the payment, you must provide one of the following parameters:
- paymentId: The original payment ID of the payment request to be cancelled, generated by Alipay when the merchant initiates the original payment.
- paymentRequestId: The original paymentRequestId of the payment request to be cancelled.
Result process logic
For different request results, different actions are to be performed. See the following list for details:
- If the value of result.resultStatus is
S, the cancellation succeeds.
If the value of result.resultStatus is F, the cancellation fails. See the returned error code and determine further actions.
- If the value of result.resultStatus is
U, the cancellation result is unknown. Use the same request parameters to retry the cancellation request. - If no response is returned, use the same request parameters to retry the cancellation request.
