Remove a cancelled calendar event from Api labz
When a meeting is cancelled, clear the event from the calendar through the workflow that captured the change.

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Delete event
Deletes a specified event by `event id` from a google calendar (`calendar id`); this action is idempotent and raises a 404 error if the event is not found.
