Unblock a User

Remove a previously blocked user from the caller's block list. Returns 404 if no block row exists for this pair.

DELETE /api/v1/users/block/:userId — 🔑 Bearer

Removes the BlockList row for the (ownerId, blockedId) pair. Not idempotent — if no row exists, returns 404 user.block.not_blocked so the caller knows nothing changed. The opposite direction (other user blocking this user) is unaffected.

The path mirrors POST /users/block/:userId exactly — same param, same auth. Method (POST vs DELETE) is the only differentiator.

Request

Path parameters

Param	Type	Validation	Notes
`userId`	string (UUID)	`ParseUUIDPipe`	The user to unblock

No body.

Header	Required	Notes
`Authorization: Bearer <accessToken>`	✓	JWT from `POST /auth/login`

Response

`200 OK` — `SuccessOnlyResponseDto`

{
  "success": true
}

Field	Type	Notes
`success`	boolean	Always `true` on 200

Errors

HTTP	`code` / `i18nKey`	Reason
`400`	(validation)	`userId` not a valid UUID
`401`	(guard)	Missing / invalid bearer token
`404`	`user.block.not_blocked`	No `BlockList` row exists for this owner/blocked pair

Side effects

prisma.blockList.findFirst({ where: { ownerId, blockedId } }). If absent → not_blocked.
prisma.blockList.delete({ where: { id: existing.id } }).
Audit log (info level): [block] User {ownerId} unblocked {blockedId}.
