# Create operation block (deprecated)

Creates an operation block for a division or program. An operation block prevents the execution of transactions for the specified division or program.

If neither `division_code` nor `program_id` is provided, the operation block is created for the whole organization.<br>
This endpoint is deprecated and no longer supported after December 19th, 2025. Please update your integration to use the v2 version before this date.
