# Reject a state-change request

`POST /lokta-lms/api/v1/sourcing-partners/{partnerId}/state-change-requests/{requestId}/rejection`

Rejects a state-change request, with a reason.

A rejection stops the maker's intent, so `reason` is required; the same asymmetry as document verification. You cannot reject your own request either: withdraw it instead.

## Parameters
- `partnerId` (path, string, required)
- `requestId` (path, string, required)
- `Idempotency-Key` (header, string): Per-intent key

## Request body (application/json)
- `reason` (string, required): The reason the maker can act on.

## Responses
- `default`: default response

## Example request (cURL)
```bash
curl -X POST \
  'https://default.lokta.tech/lokta-lms/api/v1/sourcing-partners/{partnerId}/state-change-requests/{requestId}/rejection' \
  -u '{username}:{password}' \
  -H 'Tenant-Identifier: default' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
  "reason": "string"
}'
```
