Update status of exception via api help.../api/3/vulnerability_exceptions/{id}/{status}

I have this simple script to attempt to update an exception that is marked as Deleted/Recalled and can not figure out for the life of me what i am doing wrong? Any help is greatly appreciated!

import os
import requests
from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth
from dotenv import load_dotenv

# Load environment variables from .env file

load_dotenv()
USERNAME = os.getenv("API_USERNAME")
PASSWORD = os.getenv("API_PASSWORD")
BASE_URL = os.getenv("BASE_URL")
requests.packages.urllib3.disable_warnings()


def update_vulnerability_exception(
    base_url, exception_id, status, username, password
):
    url = f"{BASE_URL}/vulnerability_exceptions/{exception_id}/{status}"
    headers = {"Content-Type": "application/json"}
    response = requests.post(
        url,
        headers=headers,
        auth=HTTPBasicAuth(username, password),
        verify=False,
    )
    return response


exception_id = 3
status = "approve"
username = USERNAME
password = PASSWORD
response = update_vulnerability_exception(
    BASE_URL, exception_id, status, username, password
)

response.text

Produces this error.

'{\r\n  "status" : 400,\r\n  "message" : "One or more arguments supplied in the request is invalid.",\r\n  "links" : [ {\r\n    "href" : "{BASE_URL_REMOVED_FOR_SECURITY}:3780/api/3/vulnerability_exceptions/3/approve",\r\n    "rel" : "self"\r\n  } ]\r\n}'

Anyone have an example in any language (python,powershel, etc) that I can reference?

UPDATE:

I created a support case and you can not recall or approve a deleted exception.
