# How to cancel a Broadcast

You can cancel a Broadcast that is scheduled or still sending. When you cancel a Broadcast, here's what happens based on its status:

- `scheduled` → `draft`: no emails are sent. You can update the Broadcast and reschedule it to be sent.
- `queued` → `canceled`: emails that have already been sent are not affected, but any emails still in the queue will no longer be sent.

## Cancel a Broadcast

1. Go to [Broadcasts](https://resend.com/broadcasts) and open the scheduled or sending Broadcast.
2. Click **Cancel** on the Broadcast page.

Resend then returns a scheduled Broadcast to `draft`, or halts delivery to the remaining recipients if the Broadcast is sending.

You can also [cancel a Broadcast via the API](/guides/broadcasts-cancel-broadcast).

:::callout{intent="note"}
Canceling is only available while a Broadcast is `scheduled` or `queued`.
Emails that have already been sent cannot be recalled.
