# Send Multi-Partner Solution Deactivation Request

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

## Request

- Base URL: `https://graph.facebook.com`
- URL: `https://graph.facebook.com/{Version}/{Solution-ID}/send_deactivation_request`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

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:**
1. Validate solution ownership and permissions
2. Check solution eligibility for deactivation
3. Submit deactivation request to business workflow
4. Return confirmation with tracking identifier
