}Authorizations
Bearer authentication header of the form Bearer <token>, where <token> is your auth token.
Path Parameters
Universally unique identifier (UUID v4) of a resource.
Example:
"b3d9d2d5-4c12-4946-a09d-953e82fae2b0"
Body
application/json
Universally unique identifier (UUID v4) idempotency key. This key is utilized to ensure exactly-once execution of mutating requests.
Example:
"ba943ff1-ca16-49b2-ba55-1057e70ca5c7"
The destination of a crypto refund.

ID of the payment to attribute this refund to. Required for merchants registered under Circle's Singapore (CIRCLE_SG) or French (CIRCLE_FR) legal entity.
Example:
"2e7b6557-1967-4348-ad81-daf3cee4c175"
Optional customer-supplied reference for this refund. Unlike payins, it is not inherited from the payment intent and is not part of the idempotency key, so a replay with the same idempotencyKey but a changed value returns the original refund.
Example:
"310c458a-18eb-4cbd-8a9a-586d9448ae69"
Response
Crypto refund successfully created for the given payment intent.
