# Cancel Proposal

Cancelling a proposal will invalidate it. This requires that the member conducting the action have `Voter` permissions, the proposal is of `Approved` status, or the proposal is stale (Proposal `transactionIndex` < Multisig `staleTransactionIndex`).

## Example

<pre class="language-typescript"><code class="lang-typescript">import * as multisig from "@sqds/multisig";
import { Connection, PublicKey } from "@solana/web3.js"

<strong>async function main(member: PublicKey) {
</strong>    // Cluster Connection
    const connection = new Connection("&#x3C;your rpc url>");
    
    // If you've saved your createKey, you can define it as a static PublicKey
    const createKey = new PublicKey("&#x3C;your createkey>")
    
    // Derive the multisig PDA
    const [multisigPda] = multisig.getMultisigPda({
        createKey,
    });
    // or
    // const multisigPda = new PublicKey("&#x3C;your multisig key>");
    
    // Get deserialized multisig account info
    const multisigInfo = await multisig.accounts.Multisig.fromAccountAddress(
      connection,
      multisigPda
    );

    // Get the current transaction index
    const transactionIndex = Number(multisigInfo.transactionIndex);
    // or, if this is tied to your first transaction
    // const transactionIndex = 1n;
    
    const ix = await multisig.instructions.proposalCancel({
        multisigPda,
        transactionIndex,
        // Member must have "Voter" permissions
        member: member,
    });
}
</code></pre>

### Notes

* Cancelling members must have "Voter" permissions
* A Proposal can be cancelled if stale. The transaction index must be less than the stale transaction index (see [Multisig reference](/main/development/reference/accounts.md#multisig))
