Endpoints


POST /{Version}/{Solution-ID}/send_deactivation_request

Submit a deactivation request for a Multi-Partner Solution. This initiates
a workflow to transition the solution from its current state to deactivated,
following proper business validation and approval processes.
Use Cases:
Request deactivation of an active Multi-Partner Solution
Initiate solution lifecycle transition management
Trigger business workflow for solution deactivation approval
Programmatically manage solution lifecycle states
Business Logic:
Solution must be in ACTIVE or INITIATED state to be eligible for deactivation
Deactivation requests are processed asynchronously
Solution status will transition to PENDING_DEACTIVATION during processing
Final deactivation requires business approval workflow completion
Rate Limiting:
Standard Graph API rate limits apply. Use appropriate retry logic with exponential backoff.
Workflow:
Validate solution ownership and permissions
Check solution eligibility for deactivation
Submit deactivation request to business workflow
Return confirmation with tracking identifier
