Remove canceled appointments from Google Calendar
When a cancellation is confirmed, let Notis delete the identified event so your calendar no longer shows an appointment that will not happen.
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
Canceled appointments can stay on the calendar when a chatbot conversation and manual calendar cleanup are disconnected.
- Remove a confirmed canceled event from the calendar.
- Reduce manual cleanup after a cancellation.
- Use the event identifier supplied by the workflow.

Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Botsonic and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to delete the Google Calendar event identified in the webhook only when the cancellation is confirmed.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real cancellation webhook for an event that can be safely removed.
