# Remove a schedule block

`DELETE /v1/schedules/{id}/blocks/{blockId}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.brixsignage.com`
- URL: `https://api.brixsignage.com/v1/schedules/{id}/blocks/{blockId}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Remove one dayparting block from a schedule.

Removes the block (a hard delete of the child row) and re-packs positions.

**Notes.**
- The returned schedule is composed from the row read BEFORE the edit, so `approvalState` / `updatedAt` can lag the edit by one read (the blocks are current).
- An unknown `blockId` is not an error: the route answers 200 with the unchanged schedule.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required
- `blockId` string, required

## Response `200`

Success.
