It uses the DeleteIntent. DeleteIntent: DeleteIntent is a PendingIntent object that can be associated with a notification and gets fired when the notification gets deleted, ether by :

User specific action User Delete all the notifications. You can set the Pending Intent to a broadcast Receiver and then perform any action you want.

   Intent intent = new Intent(this,                  MyBroadcastReceiver.class);
  PendingIntent pendingIntent =     PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this.getApplicationContext(), 0, intent, 0);
   Builder builder = new Notification.Builder(this):

..... code for your notification builder.setDeleteIntent(pendingIntent); MyBroadcastReceiver

 public class MyBroadcastReceiver extends     BroadcastReceiver {
       @Override
       public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent)      {
         .... code to handle cancel
          }

        }
