# Post Work Orders Id Reviewers Reviewer Id Revocation

POST https://app.hindsiteind.com/api/v2/work_orders/{id}/reviewers/{reviewer_id}/revocation

Revokes an external reviewer's access to the work order once they have reviewed it, so they can no longer see or review it and no longer count towards approval; only admins, the work order's assigned managers and leads, location managers and its creator may call it.
