# Disconnect the payment provider of a NIF

`DELETE /v1/companies/{company_id}/payment-connections/{connection_id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://app.beel.es/api`
- URL: `https://app.beel.es/api/v1/companies/{company_id}/payment-connections/{connection_id}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Disconnects the payment connection named by `{connection_id}` of a company that your account
**owns or manages**.

- **Effect:** BeeL deletes the stored credentials and auto-invoicing stops at once; charges
  arriving afterwards are ignored and produce no invoice. Already-issued invoices are not
  affected.
- **The provider-side authorization is not revoked:** to withdraw it, the holder must
  remove BeeL's access from the provider's own dashboard (in Stripe, *Settings → Connected
  applications*).

## Response `204`

Connection disconnected

## Other responses

- `401`: Missing or invalid authentication. Like every other error, `message`/`detail` is localized according to `Accept-Language` (`es`, `en`, `ca`); defaults to English when the header is missing or asks for none of those.
- `403`: Your account does not own or manage this company. The same answer is given for a NIF that does not exist. That case answers `error.code` `ACTIVE_COMPANY_NOT_ACCESSIBLE`.
- `404`: `CONNECTION_NOT_FOUND` — no connection of this NIF carries this `{connection_id}`. It speaks of the connection, never of the NIF: a NIF you cannot reach answers `403`, while a connection of another NIF answers this same `404` so that naming it reveals nothing.
- `429`: Rate limit exceeded. `RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED` when the request rate of your credential is over its limit; `TOO_MANY_REQUESTS` when an email the operation sends is held back because too many went out to that recipient in a short time. Either way, retry after the `Retry-After` seconds. `QUOTA_EXCEEDED` is the other `429`: the operation would go over a quota of your plan for the current period (issued invoices, for instance). Retrying does not help until the quota resets or the plan changes. `error.details` carries `feature_code`, `current_usage`, `quota_limit` and `reset_date`, and `RateLimit-Reset` the seconds until the reset when it is known.
- `500`: Internal server error
- `default`: Any status code the operation does not list above. Every operation declares it, so a generated client always has a branch to fall into and never loses the cause of a failure it did not anticipate. This is where the transport-level answers land — `405`, `406`, `415` and `429` — together with any status a future version of the API starts returning. All of them carry the same error envelope as the codes listed explicitly, so `error.code` is what tells them apart: switching on the status code alone is not enough. See «Transport-level errors» in the API description for when each one is produced. A `402` carrying `SUBSCRIPTION_REQUIRED` lands here when the account has no active subscription. `error.details` says why and what to do: `current_status` (absent if it never had one), `required_permission` and `action`. A `503` carrying `SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE` lands here too, with a `Retry-After` header: a dependency of BeeL itself (the database, the email provider) was momentarily unavailable and nothing was done. Retry after those seconds. A `502` carrying `EXTERNAL_SERVICE_ERROR` also lands here: an outbound integration the operation depends on failed or did not answer in time. It is a transient condition — retry with the same `Idempotency-Key` where the operation accepts one. One exception to the envelope: a failure of the network edge that never reaches the application (`502`, `503`, `504`, `524`) is generated by Cloudflare and its body is not BeeL's — it may not even be JSON. Treat those as "no answer", and retry.
