DELETE /api/pipelines/:pipeline_uuid/blocks/:block_uuid Delete a block from a pipeline. By default, this removes the block from the pipeline and keeps the block file in the project. By default, blocks with downstream dependencies may not be deleted. To force delete blocks, set the force query parameter to the boolean True. To also delete the underlying block file, set the delete_file query parameter to the boolean True. File deletion is only allowed when the block is not a replica and no other pipeline uses the same block file. The following example deletes a fictional block winter_wildflower from the broken_wave pipeline.
