# Close or detach a copy relationship (JSON body)

> **Rate limit:** 60 requests per 60 seconds. This is the **default shared quota** — it is shared with every other endpoint that has no dedicated limit, so requests across those endpoints all draw from the same budget.

---

This action closes the sub-portfolio of the copy relationship. There are 2 ways to close the sub-portfolio: (a) Close — close all positions and withdraw the funds back to the main portfolio balance; (b) Detach — detach the positions from the sub-portfolio and move them into the main portfolio, and withdraw the sub-portfolio cash balance back into the main portfolio balance. These correspond to the unregisterType values Close and Detach. Identical semantics to DELETE /api/v2/trading/copy, with the fields carried in a JSON body instead of query parameters — provided because some HTTP clients and proxies handle DELETE requests with bodies unreliably. The response token is an acknowledgment only: close completion is not pollable through this API.

    insights, and account management features, allowing developers to integrate
    eToro’s services into their applications. With access to market prices,
    historical data, and social trading information, the API empowers users to
    enhance their trading strategies. Designed for security and scalability, the
    eToro API ensures smooth and reliable integration for a variety of financial
    applications.

    documentation](./websocket/websocket-doc.html).


    ## Authentication


    Every request must be authenticated with exactly one of two options: an
    OAuth 2.0 access token (`Authorization: Bearer <token>`), or the
    non-interactive credential pair (`x-api-key` + `x-user-key` headers). The
    two options are mutually exclusive — a request carrying both is rejected.
    Each operation lists the OAuth scopes that grant access as alternative
    security requirements: a bearer token needs only ONE of them, and the same
    permissions govern the credential pair.
