I am a user of kite API. It happened around 2023-10-10 14:44:05, I placed an sl-order cancellation request through kite api and received a success response from KITE api. But in actual, that order went through and got executed. Ideally if SlOrder cancellation was successful then it should not get filled. Due to this, my Algo system placed another target order to exit the position.
How is this possible? I am attaching trade logs with Order Id (231010401371699).

A 200 for place order, modify order, and cancel order means the request is placed successfully. It doesn't guarantee the execution. Once you get 200 response, it is better to fetch order history for that order or fetch orderbook to see if the new order is created, or order param has changed or order status has updated.
In a broader picture the request goes through multiple systems including Kite backend, our mini-RMS, RMS, OMS and exchange. A 200 response for modify request means request is placed but RMS might reject the modification or it might get rejected at exchange and it won't be updated.
