# Take the bell off the pitch deck.

`POST /pitch-decks/{jobId}/bell-lane/remove`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://docs.sleeperhit.studio/api/v1`
- URL: `https://docs.sleeperhit.studio/api/v1/pitch-decks/{jobId}/bell-lane/remove`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Takes the bell lane off the pitch deck's timeline. Free; nothing else on the timeline is touched (the bell sound stays in My Library); a deck in review or finished re-stitches its master for its sound. Requires `Idempotency-Key`. Scope: `story:write`.

## Headers

- `Idempotency-Key` string, required

## Response `200`

The bell is off the timeline.

- object

## Other responses

- `401`: Missing, malformed, revoked, or expired API key.
- `403`: API key is valid but lacks the scope, is blocked by IP allowlist, or the account is disabled.
- `404`: The named project or source does not exist or is owned by another account.
- `409`: The pitch deck exists and the request is well-formed, but the deck, its chapter, its cast or its plates are not in a state that allows it (`pitch_deck_state_invalid`), and nothing was reserved: a plan approved outside draft, a take chosen, a chapter edited or rendered outside review/complete, an export before the finish, a finish while a call has no selected take or a footage chapter has not rendered, a text-only chapter asked for footage, a changed chapter asked for one call, a delivery class changed mid-pass, a render the compile blocked, or a finish while the master failed its video coverage (`pitch_deck_video_coverage_failed`, with `details.videoCoverage`). `details.refusal` is `{ code, action, fix }` (see PitchDeckRefusalDetails): `action` is what unblocks it — `recast_figure`, `add_signature_items`, `recast_voice` or `remake_location_plate` — and `fix` names the MCP tool and CLI command that take it; `details.blocked[]` lists every chapter a blocked compile could not render. The identical request succeeds once the deck is put right.
- `429`: Rate limit for this API key + IP + route family was exceeded.
- `500`: The API failed unexpectedly. Safe to retry with the same Idempotency-Key.
