Google Calendar — Delete event

Google Calendar — Delete event

Section titled “Google Calendar — Delete event”

Type: googlecalendar-delete-event  ·  Package: Google Calendar v1.0.5  ·  Output: —

Deletes (cancels) an event from a calendar. If the event had guests and you turn on notify, they get the cancellation notice.

How it works

Section titled “How it works”

Deletes the event eventId from the calendar calendarId with one call to Google. For a recurring event, the ID of one occurrence (from Get events) deletes only that occurrence.

Deleting an event that was already deleted fails with Gone: if your process may repeat the deletion, wrap it in Try / Catch and treat that case as success.
