# Storage Transfer API . transferOperations

## Instance Methods

Cancels a transfer. Use the transferOperations.get method to check if the cancellation succeeded or if the operation completed despite the `cancel` request. When you cancel an operation, the currently running transfer is interrupted. For recurring transfer jobs, the next instance of the transfer job will still run. For example, if your job is configured to run every day at 1pm and you cancel Monday's operation at 1:05pm, Monday's transfer will stop. However, a transfer job will still be attempted on Tuesday. This applies only to currently running operations. If an operation is not currently running, `cancel` does nothing. *Caution:* Canceling a transfer job can leave your data in an unknown state. We recommend that you restore the state at both the destination and the source after the `cancel` request completes so that your data is in a consistent state. When you cancel a job, the next job computes a delta of files and may repair any inconsistent state. For instance, if you run a job every day, and today's job found 10 new files and transferred five files before you canceled the job, tomorrow's transfer operation will compute a new delta with the five files that were not copied today plus any new files discovered tomorrow.

Close httplib2 connections.

Gets the latest state of a long-running operation. Clients can use this method to poll the operation result at intervals as recommended by the API service.

Lists transfer operations. Operations are ordered by their creation time in reverse chronological order.

Retrieves the next page of results.

Pauses a transfer operation.

Resumes a transfer operation that is paused.

    Args:
      name: string, The name of the operation resource to be cancelled. (required)
      body: object, The request body.
        The object takes the form of:

    { # The request message for Operations.CancelOperation.
    }

      x__xgafv: string, V1 error format.
        Allowed values
          1 - v1 error format

    Returns:
      An object of the form:

        { # A generic empty message that you can re-use to avoid defining duplicated empty messages in your APIs. A typical example is to use it as the request or the response type of an API method. For instance: service Foo { rpc Bar(google.protobuf.Empty) returns (google.protobuf.Empty); }
    }

`get(name, x__xgafv=None)`
