I am currently trying to learn Python and the Betfair API. I can place bets OK using the following code....

def doWager(marketId, horseId, backOrLay, stake, price, persistence, appKey, sessionToken):
bet_place_req = '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "SportsAPING/v1.0/placeOrders", "params": {"marketId": "' +marketId+ '","instructions": [{"selectionId": "' +horseId+ '", "handicap": "0", "side": "' +backOrLay+ '", "orderType": "LIMIT", "limitOrder": { "size": "' +stake+ '", "price": "' +price+ '", "persistenceType": "' +persistence+ '" } } ] }, "id": 1 }'
bet_place_resp = callAping(bet_place_req, appKey, sessionToken)
decodeBetResp = json.loads(bet_place_resp)
return decodeBetResp['result']

Can anyone tell me how I can cancel a single bet using the BetId?

thanks,

Ross.

let placeBet (marketId, selectionId) side size price = async {
let! result = betfairServiceProvider.BettingOperations.PlaceOrder(marketId, selectionId, side, size, price)

if result.IsSuccessResult
then
let placeExecutionReport = result.SuccessResult

printfn "Bet ID: %s" placeExecutionReport.instructionReports.[0].betId
else
printfn "%s" result.FailureMessage
}

let cancelBet marketId betId = async {
let instructions = [|
{ betId = betId; sizeReduction = Nullable() }
|]

let! result = betfairServiceProvider.BettingOperations.CancelOrders(marketId, instructions)

if result.IsSuccessResult
then
result.SuccessResult.instructionReports
|> Seq.iter (fun instructionReport -> printfn "Cancelled Bet ID: %s" instructionReport.instruction.betId)
else
printfn "%s" result.FailureMessage
