# delete\_\_organization\_{orgId}\_node\_{nodeId}

`DELETE /organization/{orgId}/node/{nodeId}`

*Delete Organization Node*

Soft delete a node from the authenticated user's organization. This endpoint requires OWNER or ADMINISTRATOR role permissions and the node must belong to the specified organization. The node is not permanently removed but marked as deleted with a timestamp.

**Important Notes:**

* Only users with OWNER or ADMINISTRATOR roles can delete organization nodes
* This is a soft delete operation - the node is marked as deleted but not permanently removed
* Organization node quota will be decremented accordingly
* Deleted nodes can be reactivated using the appropriate activation endpoint
* The `deletedAt` field will be set to the current timestamp when the node is deleted
