# GET /api/v1/account/cancel-on-disconnect

Get cancel-on-disconnect status.

`operationId`: `fetchCancelOnDisconnectV1`

**Authentication:** `hmacAuth`.

Returns the authenticated account's cancel-on-disconnect (COD) status. COD is an opt-in, per-account dead man's switch: when the account's last authenticated `/ws` connection drops and does not reconnect within the grace window, the exchange automatically cancels all of the account's resting orders, so a crashed client cannot leave orders exposed. `enabled` is the account's own opt-in; `active` additionally requires the exchange-side feature switch, so it reflects whether COD will actually fire; `grace_secs` is the exchange-configured reconnect window in seconds (null when the feature is unavailable). Clients that trade purely over REST and never open a `/ws` connection are not covered.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.nexus.xyz/api-reference/account/fetch-cancel-on-disconnect-v1.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
