Hello, how i can delete( cancel) charge ?
I have 2 charge where both timeline expired. Or after some time they delete automatically?

Here’s the API docs on how to cancel a charge: https://commerce.coinbase.com/docs/api/#cancel-a-charge.

Additionally, a charge is marked as expired if no payment is detected within 60 minutes of charge creation. However, if a payment comes in after 60 minutes but within 7 days of charge creation, the payment will still be detected and accounted for.

Here’s a diagram of all the payment statuses that can occur:

wrote this small function that does the trick, let me know

import fetch from "node-fetch";

const cancelCharge = async (chargeCode: string, apiKey: string): Promise<void> => {
  try {
    await fetch(
      `https://api.commerce.coinbase.com/charges/${chargeCode}/cancel`,
      {
        method: "POST",
        headers: {
          "X-CC-Api-Key": apiKey,
          "X-CC-Version": "2018-03-22",
        },
      }
    );
  } catch (error) {
    console.log("cancelCharge error:", error);
  }
};
