POST Create a New Deactivation Intent

https://svc.blockdaemon.com/boss/v1/{protocol}/{network}/deactivation-intents

Creates a new unbond intent that opts out of the delegation program.

The user is getting back both their stake and the earned reward. The reward is sent immediately, but the stake gets locked for the so-called “unbonding period” of 2–3 days (or 80 Polygon checkpoints). Once the period is over, the user should call GET Get Deactivation Intents and POST Create a New Withdrawal Intent to actually get their stake back.

Authentication Using API Key as an X-API-Key

When signing up for a staking account, you are provided with an API key.

To authenticate a Staking API request, pass your API key in the X-API-Key header:

curl -X POST \
'https://svc.blockdaemon.com/boss/v1/polygon/prater/deactivation-intents' \
-H 'X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"amount": "1000000000000000000", "wallet_address": "0x5c63B71F47dfA807aa6a8705e5cf134f4c3Afd8a"}'
