remove permissions

is there an action in the Web API to delete the permission for a certain user on a given SCO?

I have some recordings which certain users have been given permission to view. After an amount of time, I want to get rid of their permissions so they can't view the recording any more. Currently I'm testing things out, and have tried using:

action => permissions-update
acl-id => <recordingId>
principal-id => <userId>,
permission-id => "denied"

When I look at the recordings in the admin control panel, it shows as that user being "denied" (obviously), whereas what I'd like is to delete the permission altogether, so it doesn't get cluttered up. Is this possible?

try permission-id=remove

As another thought, if you have the Training or Events Modules, then you can use those tools to set start and end dates for the viewing of that recording.
