`POST /access-request/{id}/withdraw`

Resource: **Access Request** · API: **Access requests**

## Path parameters

- **`id`** _(string, required)_
  Access request id (`areq_…`).

## Response body

- **`id`** _(string)_
  Access request id (`areq_…`).
- **`requester_user_id`** _(string)_
  User id (`usr_…`) of whoever filed the request.
- **`tool`** _(string)_
  What was asked for: a tool name, or a connector slug when `resource_type` is `"connector"`.
- **`resource_type`** _(string)_
  Allowed: `tool`, `connector`
- **`connector_slug`** _(string,null)_
  On a `"tool"` request, the connector the tool lives on when the request named one — what makes approving it able to lift the restriction on that tool. Always null on a `"connector"` request.
- **`reason`** _(string)_
  What kind of refusal this request is asking to be reconsidered.
  Allowed: `permission`, `restriction`
- **`permission`** _(string,null)_
  Present only when `reason` is `"permission"` — never populated for a `"restriction"`-reason request, on either write or read. That is the disclosure rule: a restriction refusal never names the rule that blocked the caller, so this field must not become a second channel for the same fact.
- **`note`** _(string,null)_
  Optional free text from the requester, ≤ 2000 characters.
- **`status`** _(string)_
  Allowed: `pending`, `approved`, `denied`, `withdrawn`
- **`created_at`** _(string)_
- **`resolved_at`** _(string,null)_
- **`resolved_by_user_id`** _(string,null)_
  User id (`usr_…`) of the admin who resolved it.
- **`resolution_note`** _(string,null)_
- **`updated_at`** _(string)_
- **`can_withdraw`** _(boolean)_
  True when the caller is the requester and `status` is still `pending`.
