How to | Create a Cancellation Workflow

Automatically cancel a registrant's RSVP by sending them an email with a form that updates the registration for that event.

This guide will walk you through how to set up a cancellation workflow that allows registrants to cancel their event registration through a dedicated form link.

By following these steps, you’ll:

  • Create a Cancel Form URL property on the hapily Registrant record

  • Update your New Registrant Created workflow to automatically generate that URL for every new registrant

  • Create a Cancel Registration Form with a property to capture their cancellation

  • Configure a workflow to update their registration status to Canceled
