Hi Ross,

It's related to Recurring event that i want to delete only a specific day and keep the other recurring events running

Let's say i booked a recurring event every Wed at 12PM starting today OCT 11

So let's say i'm out of the office today and i want to cancel only todays event not the future's ones and send notification

I have already tested to delete the event by using the below command:

gam calendar eventor...@domain.com delete events eventid <EventID> doit sendnotifications true 

But this command will remove all the recurring events every WED, not today's one.

Is there any way to cancel a specific date from a recurring event ?

Thanks,

A recurring event has an overall Event ID and a per instance Event ID with a date attached
overall: r7r5jescvgp1r4fuh507on8704
instance: r7r5jescvgp1r4fuh507on8704_20231006T153000Z

You want to delete the instnce event.

gam user us...@domain.com print events primary singleevents ...

Thanks Ross that works for me

so to print event instances i used this command:

gam user us...@domain.com print events primary singleevents todrive

Then i searched for the instance ID for specific date and delete it

gam calendar eventor...@domain.com delete events eventid <EventID> doit sendnotifications true
