# overlane billing cancel

{/* Generated by apps/docs/scripts/generate.mjs (CLI pages from the command registry in packages/cli). Do not edit; run `pnpm --filter @overlane/docs gen`. */}

Cancels at the period end by default, so everything keeps working until then. With --now the plan ends immediately. Data over the Free limits becomes read-only; nothing is deleted.

## Usage

```sh
overlane billing cancel [--now] [--dry-run] [--force]
```

## Flags

| Flag | Type | Required | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `--now` | boolean | no |  | End the plan immediately instead of at the period end |
| `--dry-run` | boolean | no |  | Print the requests and file changes this command would make, then stop. Needs no credentials. |
| `--force` | boolean | no |  | Confirm a destructive action when there is no terminal to ask on. Without it, exit 2. |

## Examples

```sh
overlane billing cancel
overlane billing cancel --dry-run
```

## Behavior

- Effect: `destructive` (deletes or reverts; needs `--force` without a terminal).
- Needs credentials: yes. Uses the network: yes.
- Supports `--dry-run`: yes. Accepts `--force`: yes.
- Machine-readable description: `overlane schema billing cancel`.

## Result

With `--json` (the default when stdout is not a terminal) the command prints this JSON Schema's shape on stdout.
