Page Summary
Asynchronous cancellation is attempted on a long-running operation, but success is not guaranteed and the server may not support this method.
You can check the operation's status after attempting cancellation usingOperations.GetOperationor other methods.
A successful cancellation results in an operation with an error value and a status code of1(CANCELLED), and the operation is not deleted.
The HTTP request for cancellation uses a POST method with a specific URL structure including the operation's name as a path parameter.
Authorization requires one of the listed OAuth scopes.
Starts asynchronous cancellation on a long-running operation. The server makes a best effort to cancel the operation, but success is not guaranteed. If the server doesn't support this method, it returnsgoogle.rpc.Code.UNIMPLEMENTED. Clients can useOperations.GetOperationor other methods to check whether the cancellation succeeded or whether the operation completed despite cancellation. On successful cancellation, the operation is not deleted; instead, it becomes an operation with anOperation.errorvalue with agoogle.rpc.Status.codeof1, corresponding toCode.CANCELLED.

Users initiate cancellation via a POST request to a specified URL, providing the operation's name. The server attempts cancellation, potentially returning `UNIMPLEMENTED`. Clients check the operation's status using `GetOperation`. Successful cancellation results in an operation with an error code `1` (`CANCELLED`), and the operation isn't deleted. The request body is empty, and the response, if successful, is also empty. Specific OAuth scopes are required.\n"]]
