Cancel calendar event — Brigg developers

Access & visibility

Allow meetings.CancelCalendarEvent on your API key. Resource write permissions: core:CalendarEvent.

Workspace access by default. Private member data requires approved member delegation through Brigg-Act-As; the key supplies permissions while private ownership and project boundaries remain enforced.

Request fields

Send a JSON object with the following fields. Required fields must be included; omit optional fields you do not need.

idstringRequired

The core:CalendarEvent entry id.

At least 1 character.

send_cancelbooleanOptional

Mail an iCal CANCEL to every attendee.

messagestringOptional

Message included with the calendar invitation update or cancellation.

Response

Returns 200 OK with a JSON body.

idstringRequired

Unique identifier. Use the value returned by a create or list operation.

uidstringRequired

Calendar invitation UID, distinct from the Brigg record ID.

sendobjectOptional

Present when a mail-out was asked for.

Nested fields

message_idsmap of stringRequired

Recipient email address to delivery message ID.

skippedarray of stringRequired

Attendee account ids with no email address.

rate_limitedbooleanOptional

The org's invite quota was hit — the event write landed, no mail went out.

Errors & retries

Set BRIGG_REQUEST_ID once for each logical action. The samples send it as Idempotency-Key. Reuse the same value and body on retries, including after a timeout; a missing response does not prove the action failed.

For rate limits, follow the server’s retry guidance and back off. See HTTP errors and safe retries and limits.

HTTP status	Code	What to do
400	`invalid_json`	Send a JSON object with Content-Type: application/json.
400	`invalid_input`	Check the request fields and types. Supply a stable Idempotency-Key containing 1–200 characters.
401	`invalid_key`	The workspace API key is missing, invalid or revoked.
403	`forbidden`	Check the key’s operation and resource grants. If Brigg-Act-As is supplied, the key must be authorized to delegate to that member.
404	`not_found`	The requested operation or resource is not available to this credential.
429	`rate_limited`	Wait for Retry-After before retrying. Reuse the original Idempotency-Key.
