# Delete event

> Delete or cancel one Google Calendar event.

`deleteEvent` removes an event from its calendar. Use it only when cancellation
is intended; this is not a way to decline an invitation.

## Example

```ts theme={null}
import { automation, onHttpRequest } from "automate.ax"
import { deleteEvent } from "automate.ax/google-calendar"

export default automation("Cancel a planning event", () => {
  onHttpRequest({ scope: "automation" })

  deleteEvent({
    calendar: "Team Calendar",
    event: "event-id",
    sendUpdates: "all",
  })
})
```

## Output

Returns `Signal<{ calendarId: string; eventId: string }>` identifying the
deleted event. Delete an organizer-owned event to cancel it; use [Respond to
invitation](/reference/integrations/google-calendar/actions/respond-to-invitation)
when the authenticated user is an attendee.
