Note
At this time, it is not possible to perform partial refunds or return specific line items via the API, but you can still do this via Dashboard. For help with these types of returns, please see Refunding Orders .
Note
If you process a full return via the API for an order associated with a subscription, the subscription is not automatically canceled. You can cancel the subscription by calling DELETE /subscriptions/{subscriptionId}.
