The `nodeId` travels in the JSON body, not the URL — the collection endpoint serves all three mutation verbs (`POST` add, `PATCH` move, `DELETE` remove) and keys off the body. The backing Postgres RPC holds a row-level lock while deleting and re-packing remaining nodes to contiguous 0-indexed positions, so concurrent mutations can't corrupt the order. ## Related operations * [Add a sequence node](/api-reference/campaigns/add-sequence-node) — `POST` to insert. * [Update a sequence node](/api-reference/campaigns/update-sequence-node) — `PUT` to edit content. * [Get a campaign](/api-reference/campaigns/get-campaign) — returns the fresh `sequence_nodes` list. ## AI agent notes **Don't delete the `end` node.** Every campaign needs a terminal `end` marker. Removing it will leave the campaign unlaunchable. **Positions re-pack automatically.** After deletion, remaining nodes shift down so positions stay contiguous (0, 1, 2, ...). You don't need to follow up with `moveSequenceNode` calls. **Read-back fallback.** Normal response is `{ sequence_nodes: [...] }`. If the post-mutation read-back fails, the server returns `{ mutated: true }`; in that case refetch via `GET /api/campaigns/{id}`. **Irreversible.** There is no soft-delete. Confirm with the human before deleting if the node has been hand-authored content (subject, body, AI purpose). ## OpenAPI ````yaml delete /api/campaigns/{id}/sequence/nodes openapi: 3.0.3 info: title: Puffle API version: 1.0.0 description: >- HTTP API for the Puffle GTM platform - Feed and Lead Finder search preparation, campaign-backed Outbound execution, Puffle Agent runs, sender management, and Unibox reply workflows.
