# Remove rules group from campaign

`POST https://YOUR-NETWORK-DOMAIN/rest-api/rules/campaign/{campaignId}/remove.do`

Permanently deletes a targeting rules group from the specified campaign. The rule group is identified by the 'ruleGroupId' query parameter, and the campaign by its path ID. After removal, the rules in that group will no longer affect ad serving for this campaign. The response is a JSON object with 'success: true'. Requires UPDATE permission on the campaign's advertiser share and CAMPAIGN_RULES_MANAGEMENT permission. POST only: a GET answers 405, since a state change over GET can be triggered by a prefetch or an embedded link.

## Path params
