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.

Response
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.
Error codes
Error codes are usually classified into the following categories:
- Common error codes: common for all online and in-store payment APIs.
- API-specific error codes: listed in the following table.
