Cancel Calendar Events from Apilio
Send a clear cancellation request with the event identifiers and let Notis remove the event.
Trigger
Webhook received
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.
Why this helps
Cancellation requests can linger while someone searches for the right event to delete.
- Act on clear cancellation requests
- Reduce stale event cleanup
- Avoid searching the calendar by hand
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Apilio and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to delete only the event specified by the request, using its calendar ID and event ID.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and a report channel, then test with one real cancellation request.
