Does Responses API support `stop` parameter or not?

I tried the following request:
curl https://api.openai.com/v1/responses \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer {My API Key}" \
-d '{
"model": "gpt-4.1-mini",
"input": "Write a short bedtime story in two sentences. End the story with the marker .",
"stop":["END"]
}'
and received the error response.
{
"error": {
"message": "Unknown parameter: 'stop'. Did you mean 'store'?",
"type": "invalid_request_error",
"param": "stop",
"code": "unknown_parameter"
}
So, it seems that the Responses API itself supports stop but not with REST API?
