POST /heartbeat/v3 registers a timer that is meant to cancel your resting orders if you do not send a heartbeat in time by calling the same endpoint

Arming and refreshing

Arming and refreshing are the same request. The body is one field, timeoutSeconds, from 0 to 3600.
Refresh inside the timeout window

When it lapses

Every open order is cancelled for your account. It has the same effect as DELETE /orders-v3/all. The cancels are asynchronous, so orders will be cancelled shortly after with inactiveReason: "HEARTBEAT_TIMEOUT".

Stop the heartbeat

To clear the heartbeat, call POST /heartbeat/v3 again with timeoutSeconds: 0. That deactivates the timer.
