# Unassign rule chain from edge (unassignRuleChainFromEdge)

`DELETE /api/edge/{edgeId}/ruleChain/{ruleChainId}`

Clears assignment of the rule chain to the edge. Unassignment works in async way - first, 'unassign' notification event pushed to edge queue on platform. Second, remote edge service will receive an 'unassign' command to remove rule chain (Edge will receive this instantly, if it's currently connected, or once it's going to be connected to platform). Third, once 'unassign' command will be delivered to edge service, it's going to remove rule chain locally.

Available for users with 'TENANT_ADMIN' authority.
