Closes a giveaway without picking anyone. giveaway_id autocompletes with this server's giveaways that can still be cancelled. You need Manage Server, Administrator or the giveaway host role.
Only a live, scheduled or draft giveaway can be cancelled. The giveaway must be in this server ("Giveaway not found."). One that has already ended is refused: "Only a live, scheduled or draft giveaway can be cancelled. Status of this one: Ended." A giveaway that is being drawn cannot be cancelled either.
On success you see "✅ Giveaway cancelled." The post in the channel is replaced by one that reads "Cancelled by the host." with no winners and no buttons, and the giveaway's Watch live page, when it has one, shows it as cancelled.
Good to know
- Entrants are not messaged when a giveaway is cancelled.
- A cancelled giveaway is listed on the dashboard's History page, entries kept.
- A giveaway that repeats stops repeating when a round is cancelled.
- To close a giveaway and still pick winners, use /giveaway end. Cancel this giveaway on its dashboard page does the same as this command.
