# Cancel a transfer request

`DELETE /transfers/{transferId}`

Permissions required: **Transfer funds**




Cancel a transfer request. Transfer requests in the `QUEUED` state can always be cancelled. Transfer requests in the `IN_PROGRESS` state can sometimes be cancelled if the request has not been broadcast on the blockchain. Trying to cancel a request that cannot be cancelled will return a `409 Conflict` error code. Transfers can only be canceled by the API key responsible for creating that transfer (either created directly via CreateTransfer or indirectly via ExecuteHold)
