# Cancel/Delete an Invitation

Sometimes plans change! Whether a candidate withdraws their application, an invitation was sent by mistake, or you simply need to clean up your pipeline, you can easily remove pending invitations from your Cammio dashboard.

|| In Cammio, **Deleting** an invitation is currently the exact same thing as **Canceling** it. When you delete an active invitation, the platform automatically sends out a cancellation email to the candidate.
|| *Please note: If you are using Cammio integrated within your ATS, candidate communication on Cammio's side may be disabled if your ATS is handling the communication.*

### Canceling an Individual Invitation

If you only need to remove one specific candidate from the interview process:

1. Go to **Invitations** from the main sidebar menu, or open a specific interview template and go to the **Invite** tab.
2. Locate the candidate you want to remove.
3. Click the **More actions (...)** menu on the right side of their row.
4. Select **Delete invitation** from the dropdown list.
5. A warning modal will appear. Click to confirm your decision.

### Canceling Invitations in Bulk

When managing high-volume hiring workflows, you may need to clear out a larger batch of expired or withdrawn candidates all at once.

1. Go to **Invitations** from the main sidebar menu, or open your specific interview template and go to the **Invite** tab.
2. Check the boxes next to the names of all the candidates whose invitations you want to cancel.
3. A bulk action bar will automatically appear towards the bottom of your screen. Click **Delete invitations**.
4. A warning modal will appear asking you to confirm the bulk deletion. Click to confirm.

##### What Happens When You Cancel?

To keep your workflow efficient and compliant, the platform automatically handles the backend logistics the moment you confirm a deletion:

* **Invalidate Links:** The candidate's unique interview link is instantly deactivated. If they try to click it, they will no longer be able to access the interview.
* **Automated Notifications:** The system immediately sends a "Cancellation" email to the candidate to keep them informed. If you are canceling a **Live Interview**, an automated notice is also sent to any internal or external interviewer assigned to that session.

||| Deleting an invitation is a permanent action. If you accidentally delete a candidate, you will need to create and send them a brand-new invitation.

|| *Please note: If you are using Cammio integrated within your ATS, candidate communication on Cammio's side may be disabled if your ATS is handling the communication.*

### Troubleshooting

| Issue | How to fix it |
| ---- |
| You cancelled the wrong candidate | Re-invite the correct person immediately, and consider adding a note to your internal tracking |
| You need the candidate back in the process | Create a **new invitation** (re-invite) |
