This endpoint would accept a POST Request with a JSON payload containing the Unstaking Request details. The `amount` , `fromAddressId` , and `toValidatorAddressId`are the three required parameters that must be included within the JSON payload. > **Warning** > > **Staking Amount for ATOM** > > It is important to note that in the Cosmos Ecosystem, **you are allowed to select the amount you want to stake**. ## Prerequisites ### Required Roles Certain API endpoints require that the user has a specific role in order to access them. Roles are used to restrict access to certain functionality within the system and ensure that only authorized users are able to perform specific actions. Here is the list of required Roles for this particular endpoint: * RequestCreator * TPUser To find out more about roles, please refer to the following [page](/user-guides/docs/users-1#creating-a-new-user) in the Taurus User Guides. ### Required Input Parameters Certain API endpoints require specific input parameters. Here is the list of Required Input Parameters for this particular endpoint: * **fromAddressId** : the originating Address * **amount** : the amount you would like to unstake * **toValidatorAddressId** : the destination Validator Address used for Staking > **Note** > > **Preconditions** > > It is important to note that the selected Addresses needs to pre-exist and be active in the system. In addition, the originating Address should have already been used for Staking, otherwise the Unstaking Request will fail. ## Call Example You can find a basic example in cURL below.\ Please note that you will need to update the `BASEURL` and the `APITOKEN` for the command to function.\ In this example, Taurus-PROTECT has created a new Unstaking Request from Address 422470 to Validator Address 1792 with 1 ATOM as the specified amount to unstake and has assigned it a unique ID of 4268654. **`cURL`** ```curl cURL export BASEURL=https://taurus-protect-instance.com export APIToken=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJpZCI6MSwiZXh0ZXJuYWxVc2VySUQiOiJ0ZWFtMUV4dGVybmFsVXNlcklEIiwidGVuYW50SUQiOjEsImNhcGl0YWxUZW5hbnRJRCI6MSwiZmlyc3RuYW1lIjoiSm9obiIsImxhc3RuYW1lIjoiRG9lIiwicm9sZXMiOlsidHB1c2VyIl0sImVtYWlsIjoidGVhbTFAYmFuay5jb20iLCJ1c2VybmFtZSI6InRlYW0xIiwiand0X3JlbmV3YWJsZV9hbW91bnQiOjAsImlzX3RvdHBfZW5hYmxlZCI6ZmFsc2UsImF1dGhfc3RhdHVzIjoiU1VDQ0VTUyIsImxhc3RfbG9naW4iOiIyMDIzLTAxLTAxVDAwOjAwOjAwLjE0OTc0NDIzMloiLCJsb2dnZWRfaW5fd2l0aF9zc28iOmZhbHNlLCJrZXkiOiIiLCJleHAiOjE2ODEyMTkyNzYsImlhdCI6MTY4MTIxNzQ3Nn0.K_85arIrigpkN1yHttCydpeT6oVg2c6PyQnuji907Og curl --location "$BASEURL/api/rest/v1/requests/outgoing/cosmos/undelegate" \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --header 'Accept: application/json' \ --header "Authorization: Bearer $APIToken" \ --data '{ "fromAddressId": "422470", "amount": "1000000", "toValidatorAddressId": "1792" }' ``` This piece of code sends a POST request to [https://your-protect-instance.example.com/api/rest/v1/requests/outgoing/ftm/undelegate](https://your-protect-instance.example.com/api/rest/v1/requests/outgoing/ftm/undelegate) with the JSON string in the request body. > **Tip** > > **Call Result** > > A successful response for the POST call to create an Unstaking Request for ATOM might look like this: ```json { "result": { "approvers": { "parallel": [ { "sequential": [ { "externalGroupID": "team1", "minimumSignatures": 1 } ] }, { "sequential": [ { "externalGroupID": "team2", "minimumSignatures": 1 } ] } ] }, "currency": "ATOM", "currencyInfo": { "blockchain": "Cosmos", "decimals": "6", "displayName": "Cosmos -
