If the call (the A leg) is in a Dial, you can also transfer the other party (the B leg) at the same time or only transfer the B leg to an URL. This is useful for many applications where you want to asynchronously change the behavior of a live call. For example, you can play music while the call is on hold, queue calls, transfer calls etc.\n\nBelow is the list of arguments that can be passed in this API request, more information can be found [here](https://www.plivo.com/docs/voice/api/call#transfer-a-call)\n\n| Arguments   | Description | Required/Conditional/Optional     |\n| :---        |    :----:   |          ---: |\n| legs      | Valid values are aleg, bleg or both. aleg will transfer calluuid. bleg will transfer the bridged leg of calluuid. both will transfer both aleg and bleg.| Optional  |\n| aleg_url   | The URL to fetch XML from for the aleg.
