# Stop events to a channel (`notify_unsubscribe`)

Stops every event to a channel; the channel stays for notify_send.

Stop sending events to a channel. The channel stays for notify_send.

Price: Free. A call that fails costs nothing.

## Use it when

A channel gets too many messages, or events should go elsewhere.

## Say this to your agent

> Stop posting applications in #hiring. We've filled the mechanic job.

## Inputs

| Name | Type | Required | Description | Allowed values | Default |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `channel` | string | yes | A short name for the channel, e.g. "sales-alerts" (lowercase letters, numbers, dashes). Matches ^[a-z0-9][a-z0-9-]{0,39}$. |  |  |

## Example

Written for Halverson Cycle & Repair, a bike shop with a repair workshop in Portland, Oregon.

MCP: call `notify_unsubscribe` on the MCP server `https://api.conecto.chat/mcp/notify` with these arguments:

```json
{
  "channel": "hiring"
}
```

REST:

```bash
curl https://api.conecto.chat/v1/tools/notify_unsubscribe \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $CONECTO_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"channel": "hiring"}'
```

## Response

```json
{
  "call_id": "5f0c8a2e-3b7d-4c1e-9a64-2d8e1f7b0c93",
  "tool": "notify_unsubscribe",
  "status": "succeeded",
  "replayed": false,
  "cost_usd": "$0.00",
  "balance_usd": "$19.75",
  "result": {
    "channel": "hiring",
    "events": []
  }
}
```

`result`: channel: its name, and events: now none.

## Errors

| Code | Status | When | Fix |
