# Create Direct Transfer

`POST /v1/direct_transfer`

Create a direct pharmacy-to-pharmacy transfer of the prescription<br/><br/>A direct transfer is a pharmacy-to-pharmacy transfer of the prescription between your pharmacy and a Truepill pharmacy. This method works best for customers that operate their own pharmacies and are looking for a programmatic way to transfer a prescription.<br/><br/>And similar to a traditional transfer request, there are required fields related to the pharmacist transferring out the prescription, and the pharmacist transferring in the prescription.<br/><br/>This approach requires a digital copy of the original prescription.
