# Cancel Bag

{% hint style="warning" %}
Bag cancellation is in beta. Please report any errors to Violet.
{% endhint %}

Cancel a single `Bag` from an `Order`. This action will attempt to cancel the external order in the merchants system. The total amount paid for this `Bag` will be refunded to the shopper upon successful cancellation.

{% hint style="info" %}
The `Bag` must be in a cancellable state. Any `Bag`'s that have a status of `IN_PROGRESS`, `REFUNDED`, or `CANCELED` cannot be cancelled.
{% endhint %}
