## POST /api/v2/domains/{id}/actions/respond-to-renewal

**Respond to pending domain renewal**

Accept or decline a pending domain-renewal proposal for one domain. Get `{id}` from `GET /api/v2/domains` `data[].id`. First read `GET /api/v2/domains/{id}` `pendingRenewalOrder` or `GET /api/v2/domains/{id}/renewal`; call this endpoint only when a pending renewal exists. To cancel the renewal, send `{ "accept": false }` or `{ "decision": "decline" }`; this cancels the pending renewal order and its invoice. Declining requires billing write permission in addition to domain write permission. To keep the renewal payable, send `{ "accept": true }` or `{ "decision": "accept" }` and then pay `renewalInvoice.paymentUrl` or the invoice payment endpoint.
