CancelJob

Schedules a non-quick job for cancellation. Has no effect on quick jobs.
Users may only cancel jobs they own, otherwise an exception is thrown.
This method does nothing and returns nothing if jobid is not an actual job.
Otherwise, this method returns once the status of the specified job has changed to 'Canceling' (int = 2).
Note that a job is not completely cancelled until the status of that job is 'Cancelled' (or 'Failed'); until then it still consumes a queue slot.
Transition from 'Canceling' to 'Cancelled' is an internal operation and is not controlled though web services.
This method returns nothing on success.

Parameters:
long wsid : WebServicesID of the account the cancellation will be run under.
string pw : Password of said account
long jobId : Identifier of the job to cancel

Output:
Void
