under what circumstances will the status of Refund be "cancelled"

[YELLOW816]

Hello,

https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/payments/v1/#refund_get

I'm using this api to refund automatically and confused about the "cancelled" status. It means the payment is cancelled or the refund is cancelled? Under what circumstances will the status of Refund be "cancelled"? I can't find the cancel api.

Does it mean that the Refund succeeded or failed?

Hi @YELLOW816 

I'd be happy to answer this for you. So this is a pretty rare occurrence, but Refund cancellations can occur when a refund was initiated by eCheck. The eCheck can be cancelled by the issuing bank or by the individual sending the refund. 

Hope this helps!
