# deactivate()

> Create deactivate stake request transaction.

This method calls [`/solana/{network}/staking/deactivate`](/reference/solana-staking-deactivate) to create a new unsigned transaction which, if signed and broadcasted, will deactivate a previously created stake.

## Parameters

<CodeGroup>
  ```javascript JavaScript theme={null}
  await client.solana.deactivate({
    feePayer: '9i5cTqci1W6DHdYfT7WbiNhP5DXvnPNTXvS9fTBFfuSw',
    stakeAccount: 'Fw82VhehY4yazX6tcZfNQWTsqHDSXaGmwVkbJYegDMbG',
    stakeAuthority: '9i5cTqci1W6DHdYfT7WbiNhP5DXvnPNTXvS9fTBFfuSw',

## Result

The method returns a JSON object that contains a base64-encoded unsigned transaction and some metadata about it.

You can decode the transaction using [`decodeTransaction()`](/docs/staking-sdk-solana-decodetransaction) or pass it directly to [`signWithKeypairs()`](/docs/staking-sdk-solana-signwithkeypairs).
