​
Vote Actions

The available action depends on the proposal’s current status:
StatusAvailable Actions
Activeapprove, reject
Approvedcancel

​
Reject vs Cancel

reject and cancel are not interchangeable—they operate at different lifecycle stages.
reject — Block a proposal during voting (status: Active)
  • Use when you disagree with the proposed action
  • Prevents the proposal from reaching approval
cancel — Stop an already-approved proposal (status: Approved)
  • Use when circumstances have changed after approval
  • Prevents execution of an approved proposal
Active → approve/reject → Approved → cancel → Cancelled
                ↓                       ↓
           Rejected                  Executed

​
Automatic Duplicate Filtering

The API filters out signers who have already voted with the same action. If all requested signers have already voted, the API returns an error. 
// If signerA already approved, only signerB is included
const response = await grid.vote(accountAddress, proposalAddress, {
  signers: [signerA, signerB],
  action: "approve"
});
// response.signers = [signerB]

​
Permission Requirements

All signers must have CAN_VOTE permission (mask includes value 2).
