Destructive

Cancel LinkedIn Invitation

Withdraw a pending invitation you previously sent, identified by its invitation_id from list_invitations. The action fails if the invitation has already been accepted and has no effect if it was already withdrawn. Use it to tidy up stale outbound requests and keep your pending queue under control.
