Events.cancel
From Facebook Developer Wiki
Contents |
Description
Cancels an event. The application must be an admin of the event. An application is the admin of an event if the application created the event on behalf of a user (with that user's active session) or if it is the creator of the event itself (that is, the event was created without an active user session).
This method does not require a session key. However if you call this method without an active user session, then your application can cancel an event only if it is the event creator.
Parameters
| Required | Name | Type | Description | |
| required | api_key | string | The application key associated with the calling application. | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| call_id | float | The request's sequence number. Each successive call for any session must use a sequence number greater than the last. We suggest using the current time in milliseconds, such as PHP's microtime(true) function. | ||
| sig | string | An MD5 hash of the current request and your secret key, as described in the How Facebook Authenticates Your Application. | ||
| v | string | This must be set to 1.0 to use this version of the API. | ||
| eid | int | The event ID. | ||
| optional | cancel_message | string | The message sent explaining why the event was canceled. You can pass an empty string if you don't want to provide an explanation. | |
| session_key | string | The session key of the logged in user. | ||
| format | string | The desired response format, which can be either XML or JSON. (Default value is XML.) | ||
| callback | string | Name of a function to call. This is primarily to enable cross-domain JavaScript requests using the <script> tag, also known as JSONP, and works with both the XML and JSON formats. The function will be called with the response passed as the parameter. |
